TECNA B340-G05 Bowden Retractor — 22.05–30.86 lbs Capacity, 19.69-in. Bowden Cable

TECNA B340-G05 Bowden retractor — 22.05–30.86 lbs capacity over a 98.43-in. stroke, with a 19.69-in. Bowden cable that lets the load line emerge in a chosen direction rather than dropping vertically. Stainless steel rope inside the Bowden sheath; cast aluminum body; adjustable capacity.

Description

The TECNA B340-G05 Bowden retractor uses a flexible Bowden cable — a stainless steel inner rope inside a low-friction sheath — to decouple the load line from the suspension point. The B340-G05 can be mounted in one position while delivering the cable end at a different angle or location, which allows it to work around fixed equipment and installation constraints that rule out a conventional overhead-drop balancer. The B340-G05 carries a load capacity of 22.05–30.86 lbs (10–14 kg) and a working stroke of 98.43 in. (2500 mm), with a 19.69-in. (500 mm) Bowden cable. Capacity is adjustable and a stroke limiting device sets the working range to the application. Within the B340-series, the B340-G05 is the shortest Bowden-cable variant; the B340-G1 extends the cable from 19.69 in. to 39.37 in. at the same 22.05–30.86 lbs capacity.
