Drag chain support plates install onto the top of the rail with the long edge perpendicular to the rail. The short edge of
the plate lines up with the
rail’s centerline, allowing the plate to
overhang the back side of the rail
by 1”. The PEM nuts
in the drag chain tail support plates overhang the rail.
