Igus 15-2-038-0 6' Snap Open Cable Carrier 6 Ft

Product Description

The IGUS 15-2-038-0 6' is a snap-open cable and hose carrier manufactured from Igumid G, a self-lubricating, wear-resistant polymer engineered for dynamic cable management applications. This carrier protects and guides cables, hoses, and conduits through repetitive motion cycles in industrial and mechanical systems. It spans 6 feet in overall length and is assembled from 23 individual links with a link-to-link pitch of 1.2 inches. The snap-open design allows technicians to access internal cables without full disassembly, reducing service time. Inside dimensions measure 0.98 inches wide by 0.67 inches tall, with a bend radius of 1.5 inches.

This cable carrier is suited for CNC machinery, robotics, automated assembly equipment, and other applications that require continuous flexing cable protection. The compact cross-section fits tight cable routing paths in light-duty industrial systems. Mechanical, electrical, and automation technicians install this carrier wherever cables or hoses must travel through a defined, repetitive motion path without excessive wear or tangling. The Igumid G material performs well in environments exposed to cutting fluids, lubricants, and light chemical splash.

Key Features

• Snap-open link design for fast cable access and mid-run installation
• Igumid G polymer construction - self-lubricating and wear-resistant
• 1.5-inch bend radius keeps cables within safe flex limits
• 1.2-inch link-to-link pitch across 23 sections for smooth articulation
• Inside width of 0.98 inches and inside height of 0.67 inches
• Meets VDE 0304, IIC, and UL 94 HB standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard snap-open cable and hose carrier for light-duty industrial cable management applications requiring a 6-foot run length and 1.5-inch bend radius.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by automation technicians or electricians during machine build or scheduled maintenance. Disconnect and de-energize all equipment before routing cables through the carrier. Avoid exceeding the rated bend radius, as over-bending can stress cables and reduce carrier service life. Secure the fixed and moving ends of the carrier to their respective mounting points before loading cables or hoses.
