TECNA B340-G2 Bowden Retractor — 22.05–30.86 lbs Capacity, 78.74-in. Bowden Cable

Description

The TECNA B340-G2 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-G2 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-G2 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 78.74-in. (2000 mm) Bowden cable. Capacity is adjustable and a stroke limiting device sets the working range to the application. Within the B340-series, the B340-G2 is the longest Bowden-cable variant at 78.74 in.; the B340-G105 carries the same 22.05–30.86 lbs capacity on a shorter 59.06-in. Bowden cable.
