Description
Overview:
This 79 inch (approx. 196 cm) handbrake cable is a direct replacement for early Thwaites dumpers with a handbrake drum assembly at the gearbox end. Built around a strong steel inner wire with a durable black outer sheath and robust metal end fittings, it transmits handbrake force reliably to the drum mechanism. It is engineered for the operating loads and routing typically found on Thwaites machines, helping restore safe, positive parking brake performance. Inner cable length is approx. 196 cm (79 inches) and outer cable length is 164 cm, allowing correct travel and adjustment. Supplied to MPN T9804, it suits popular Thwaites models such as the 4000 where a drum-type gearbox-end handbrake is fitted.
Key Features:
- Purpose-made for early Thwaites dumpers with a gearbox-end drum handbrake
- Inner cable length approx. 196 cm (79 inches) for correct lever-to-drum travel
- Outer cable length 164 cm to suit standard routing on the chassis
- Steel inner wire with protective outer sheath for durability on site
- Positive, consistent braking feel to aid safe parking and holding on gradients
- Pre-terminated metal end fittings for straightforward replacement and setup
- Corrosion-resistant construction suited to wet, muddy, and abrasive conditions
- Compatible with MPN T9804 for clear identification and parts matching
- Helps cure weak, seized, or stretched handbrake action with minimal downtime
- Designed to work with the existing handbrake drum assembly for a tidy fit
Typical Applications:
Routine replacement of worn or stretched handbrake cables on Thwaites dumpers working on construction sites, landscaping projects, and plant hire fleets. Used to restore reliable parking brake performance after heavy use, exposure to mud and water, or during scheduled maintenance.
