Single-channel cable protector for extension cords

The Ultratech 1843 is a drop-over cable protector designed for extension cords, network cables, telephone cords and general wires. Its single channel accepts cables up to 1 1/2 inches in diameter and sits 2 1/8 inches high, 14 1/8 inches long and 13 5/8 inches wide. It suits indoor or outdoor routes where foot traffic crosses temporary wiring.

Replaces loose floor tape and loose conduit runs

This protector upgrades from makeshift covers that shift under wheels or feet. The 13 500 lb per axle load capacity and ABS construction make the jump worthwhile when vehicles or heavy carts cross the cable path. It is not for buyers who need multiple separated channels for power and data segregation or who require ADA-compliant ramped edges.

Snap-together installation with lay-under cable feed

The snap connection style allows sections to join without tools, and the lay-under feed means cables are placed before the cover drops over. Ensure the channel height clears your thickest plug ends; oversized connectors can prevent the lid from seating fully. The 5 lb unit is light enough for one-person deployment but can slide on polished floors if not weighted or taped.

Questions about this item

What are the channel height and width dimensions of the 1843 cable protector extension?

The single channel measures 1 1/2 inches high by 3 inches wide, accommodating cables up to 1 1/2 inches in diameter.

How do the snap connections join multiple 1843 extensions together?

Align the interlocking tabs on each unit and press firmly until the snap locks engage; the step often missed is checking both sides are fully seated before applying load.

When should the ABS 1843 extension be replaced due to wear?

Replace the unit if the ABS housing shows cracks, the snap connectors no longer lock securely, or the surface texture has worn smooth enough to reduce traction.
