separators
Explanation:
I don't think it needs to be translated THAT literally in English. We'd simply refer to them as separators.

Reference: Aufteilen

Reference information:
Aufteilen (Trennen aneinander haftender Kettfäden) is "splitting". See official translation of DIN 62500 "Kettvorbereitung und Kettvorbereitungsmaschinen". I'm not sure about "Bogen", though.
