An example of a standard type chain with cables running through it. Cable carriers, also known as drag chains, energy chains, or cable chains depending on the manufacturer, are guides designed to surround and guide flexible electrical cables and hydraulic or pneumatic hoses connected to moving automated machinery.
The gear is turned, and this pulls the chain putting mechanical force into the system. Another type of drive chain is the Morse chain, invented by the Morse Chain Company of Ithaca, New York, United States. This has inverted teeth. [2] Sometimes the power is output by simply rotating the chain, which can be used to lift or drag objects.
Traction cables (cable chains, snow cables) attach like chains but are made from cable rather than chain. Chain patterns include the ladder, diagonal, or pattern types. Ladder-type chains have cross chains perpendicular to the road and look like a ladder when carefully laid on the ground. With diagonal chains, the cross chains are diagonal to ...
Tumbaga is an alloy composed mostly of gold and copper. It has a significantly lower melting point than gold or copper alone [citation needed]. It is harder than copper, but maintains malleability after being pounded. Tumbaga can be treated with a carboxylic acid, such as oxalic acid, to dissolve copper off the surface. What remains is a shiny ...
Drag chain may refer to: Cable carrier in moving machinery; Drag conveyor, for moving bulk material; A type of chain shift in linguistics; Part of a dragline excavator;
PJ1 TrackBite (formerly known as VHT TrackBite or simply VHT) is a custom formulated synthetic resin, typically black in color, used in drag racing to either increase the traction of a car's tires or as a sealer for newly ground and/or resurfaced race tracks. [1] It stays sticky for weeks, has fire-retardant properties, and is hydrophobic. It ...

Rupp introduced two new economy models for 1971, one using the newer frame style and another using the older style frame. The Rupp Bandit used the newer style frame on 10" mag wheels with Trials tires. It used a 2 1/1 HP Tecumseh engine with no TC-1 unit and the same chain guard as the 1970 Sprint. It had no suspension and was offered in blue only.
