Description
Overview:
This longlife detachable Bowden brake cable (MPN 211 056) is a replacement cable for Knott and Ifor Williams trailer braking systems. It is a mechanical Bowden-type cable with a protected, sheathed inner to help resist corrosion and abrasion in regular fleet, plant hire and general towing use. The cable is specified with an outer length (L) of 1830 mm (1.83 m; approx. 72.0 in or 6 ft) and an inner length (L1) of 2040 mm (2.04 m; approx. 80.3 in or 6 ft 8.3 in). The detachable design supports straightforward installation and removal during servicing without disturbing other brake components. Intended for braked trailers using overrun (inertia) brake linkages, this cable suits maintenance replacements where the existing unit matches these dimensions on Knott or Ifor Williams running gear. Supplied as a single cable assembly ready to fit to the correct anchor points and end fittings on the trailer chassis and brake backplates.

Typically runs between the chassis-mounted compensator/equaliser and the brake lever at the axle backplate.
