Abstract
A composite cable carrier for supporting flexible cable, hoses or other conduit is made of two parallel chains of metal side links that are pivotally joined end to end. The links are connected by snap-on nylon retainer clips, rivets or pins, and the chains are joined laterally by snap-on nylon cross-bars. Stop posts of outer plates extend into slots of inner plates from both sides, with sharp 90.degree. inside and outside corners for improved load handling ability. Integrally formed straps may be provided for added strength of the stop posts, and the straps are oriented along radials of the link pivot. The metal-nylon composite carrier is strong but light-weight, having a high load capacity so that it can be used in applications with heavy cables and/or long unsupported spans.
