Description
Overview:
This Longlife Detachable Bowden Brake Cable is a replacement cable for Knott-type trailer brake systems and many Ifor Williams trailers. It links the handbrake/overrun actuator to the brake shoe lever, transmitting pull reliably to apply the brakes. The assembly uses a steel inner cable with a protective outer sheath to limit water and grit ingress and reduce corrosion. Detachable end fittings allow straightforward connection and removal during servicing. Dimensions are set to common Knott lengths: outer conduit length (L) 630 mm (24.8 in) and inner cable length (L1) 840 mm (33.1 in). This Non-Genuine compatible part offers a practical like-for-like fit where the specified lengths are required for correct brake operation on braked trailers used for plant, general duty, or towing applications.
