• Available with: SRC, LRC, and XL Series

Plastic lids offer a lightweight, easy access, alternative to heavy-duty aluminum armor plates. Available in a wide range of sizes, their aesthetically pleasing look and ease of access make plastic lids an excellent choice for applications where dust and debris are present.  Their snap-in design allows cavity access with the tip of a screwdriver.  Lid width is customer-specified.

• Available with: TSC, TS and TL Series

Machined bars are aluminum or plastic block-style crossbars, custom-bored to your specific cable and hose diameters. Machined bars offer minimal wear, optimal placement, and ensure that each cable and hose rides the neutral axis of the carrier, prolonging jacket and conductor life.

• Metal Carriers – Gortrac: SRC, LRC, SX, XX and XL Series
• Plastic Carriers – Nylatrac: TS, TL Series

Utilizing an innovative, spring loaded pin design, E-Z Out combines the strength of aluminum bars, with a bolt-less, snap-out removal system for quick interior accessibility. Poly rollers can be incorporated for lower wear requirements.

Vertical separators snap or bolt into carrier crossbars to provide multiple compartments in a single link. Available in most carriers and in a variety of styles, including stationary and rolling designs, vertical separators can be installed every link, or staggered for economy. When sizing compartments, Dynatect recommends a safety factor of an additional 10% for cables and 20% for hoses.

Cable and hose sleeves are a simple, reliable and cost-effective method for protecting dynamic cables and hoses, either in a carrier or by themselves. Sleeves are available with zippers or hook and loop fasteners for accessibility, in a wide variety of materials for diverse application requirements.

• Benefits: Provides protection from elements (ozone, heat and liquids) and increases machine operator protection.
• Applications:  Hydraulic hose containment, protection of highly sensitive cables, electrical noise interference, aesthetic enhancement.
• Cable/hose sleeves can be added to most carriers

Modular sliders are often used in long travel applications in which chain bands glide on each other. Sliders are manufactured from special plastic material that is highly wear resistant and offers extremely good coefficient of friction values. Not only do they reduce tow force and wear, but they are removable and easy to replace.

• Available with Modular Plastic Nylatrac Series: TSC, TS, and TL
• Dynatect can also add glide blocks to metal carriers. Consult Dynatect for details.

Dynatect offers a variety of clamp styles and designs, as well as mounting brackets with incorporated strain relief fingers for a quick and easy zip tie clamping solution. Standard and custom designs are available. View our clamping and strain relief page to see options.
