3873 Rubber Top Side Flexing Plate Top Chain
This 3873 variant adds rubber contact strips to overlapping carrying plates. The strips change the surface presented to the product while the plates articulate through the curve.

Compare Contact Through the Curve
Check how the product base bridges the strips as adjacent plates change angle.
Change Product Contact While Retaining Plate Overlap
The raised strips provide the contact line beneath the product. The surrounding plate supports the attachment and overlaps its neighbor through articulation.
A base that rests on strips may behave differently from the same base on a plain plate. Consider rocking, sliding and release at the actual operating surface condition. The attachment name does not define available traction under every condition.

Use the Strip Top as the Transfer Reference
Compare strip height with the receiving surface and check clearance around the end turn. Review the product's useful base area against the strip pattern.
Identify the exact lower roller or bearing assembly from an underside sample. A plain 3873 drawing alone does not define the complete rubber-top variant.
Guided Conveying with Raised Contact Strips
A rubber-top arrangement is relevant where the product needs frictional contact while moving through a curved connection. The contact pattern must remain beneath the base as the plate angles change.
Where products wait, the same friction surface can increase drag against a restrained item. Test movement, stopping and release with the actual product before choosing the attachment for an inclined or accumulating section.

Review a 3873 Rubber Top Assembly
Send the required length and quantity with top and underside photographs. Include product-base dimensions, curve layout and surface conditions so CSTRANS can compare the contact and lower assembly.
