Description
Overview:
This Handbrake Cable is a genuine Thwaites part for 6 tonne dumpers, engineered to keep the machine securely held when parked. Built with a high‐strength steel inner cable and a tough protective outer sheath, it transmits force from the handbrake lever to the brake mechanism for dependable holding power on level ground and inclines. The cable length is 153 cm (60.2 inches), suitable for the routing typically used on Thwaites dumpers. As an OEM component (T101070), it supports correct alignment and reliable operation on specified models such as the Thwaites 6 Tonne and MACH 294. Robust metal end fittings are designed for precise connection to existing hardware, helping maintain safety and compliance on construction sites, landscaping projects, and plant hire fleets.
