Brake Cable

Parking brake cable is often used to connect brake pedals or handles with the braking mechanism in automotive vehicles. Unlike the hydraulic systems in regular brakes, the parking brake, also known as the emergency brake, depends completely on this cable. When the emergency brake pedal is pushed or handle is pulled, this cable tightens. Over time, the cable may start to corrode or rust. Therefore, it is important to choose a parking brake cable that can be trusted to last through continued use. Our parking brake cable is protected with a PVC jacket and insulation that allow for a temperature rating of -40°C to 105°C. This makes our cable able to withstand situations that involve a lot of heat due to friction, making it optimal for use in emergency brakes. However, this cable may not be used in applications that exceed temperatures of 105°C. While used most commonly for emergency brake systems, parking brake cable may be used in other automotive applications as well.
