Custom cables for Cars, Trucks, Tractors, Motor bikes, Machinery

The part Number coding system of specifying your FDA TSK HILEX control cable provides a convenient and accurate means for ordering your cable requirements and is particularly suitable for communication by telephone or facsimile.
The code is made from the following alphabetical and numerical symbols and if followed carefully will ensure that our order is fulfulled exactly to your requirements.

FDA TSK HI-LEX control cables are available in four basic load capacities and two basic materials. The standard grade control is made utilising carbon steel terminations components adequately plated to resist corrosion for normal industrial and Automotive-applications. All controls feature stainless steel rod ends and Deluxe grade controls feature stainless steel or combination of Stainless Steel and brass fittings making them suitable for most corrosive environments. Each size is available in a variety of mounting patterns and stroke lengths.

From the four basic capacity ranges available in FDA TSK HI-LEX push-pull controls it will be possible to select a cable suitable for almost any requirement. The following basic elements should be established when specifying the correct HI-LEX control cable for each application.

• The output load;
  
• The required stroke;
  
• The total number of degrees of bend angle assumed in the routing of the cable;
  
• The operating environment;
  
• The method of actuation;
  
• Mounting detail.
  

The operating loads within the system, together with the total bend angle and stroke largely determine the size of cable that will be required, and influence the frictional characteristics of the assembly. It is the frictional factor which dictates the resultant input load in relation to the working load, and forms the basis of selecting the size of control cable required.
