Phidix 3000lb Pull-Only Brake Control Cable: Industrial Strength, Engineered Precision
When your system demands control under tension—without compromise—the Phidix 3000lb pull-only brake cable delivers mechanical actuation built for rugged duty cycles and high-force reliability.
Developed for environments where electronics fail, hydraulics complicate, and failure isn’t an option, this cable is trusted across industries that require dependable, direct mechanical control.
Whether it’s a mining lockout, construction park brake, offshore disconnect, or factory safety system—Phidix cables pull their weight.
Built for Heavy-Duty Mechanical Actuation
Ideal Applications:
• Construction Equipment Braking: Earthmovers, wheel loaders, and trenchers with manual or redundant brake systems
• Mining & Aggregate Systems: Emergency lockouts, chute gates, or cable winch actuation
• Offshore & Marine Gear: Control of PTOs, hatches, or manual overrides where corrosion resistance matters
• Material Handling Machinery: Crane interlocks, conveyor tensioners, and lift-arm mechanical brakes
• Rail, Utility, and Industrial Lockout Systems: Emergency disconnect and cable-actuated latching
In each case, high tensile strength and environmental durability are non-negotiable.
Key Mechanical Specifications
• Ultimate Tensile Capacity: 3000 lb (pull-only direction)
• Minimum Bend Radius: 7"
• Innermember: 0.187" dia, 1×37 galvanized steel, nylon coated
• Conduit System: Plastic liner + steel flat wire wrap + abrasion-resistant outer jacket
• Standard Travel Range: 2" to 6" (custom available)
• Service Environment: Vibration, corrosion, heat, and contamination resistant
What Sets It Apart
• Multi-Strand Inner Core: Uniform load transfer, fatigue-resistant, minimal stretch
• Sealed Conduit Ends: Prevents ingress of water, oil, dirt—ideal for field equipment
• Pcision-Lined Jacket: Reduces friction for smoother actuation and longer wear life
• Configurable End Fittings: Clevis, threaded rod, stop ends, ball/socket for diverse system layouts
When operating in demanding industrial systems, the ability to trust each pull cycle is what defines performance—and safety.

Common Misconceptions
Q: Is this just a scaled-up version of a push-pull cable?
A: No. It’s a single-direction, pull-optimized cable with reinforced core and jacket built for tension loads only.
Q: Will it perform outdoors or on mobile platforms?
A: Yes. Conduit structure and sealing were designed for exposed installation, including water, salt, and thermal cycling.
Q: How does it compare to hydraulic actuation?
A: It provides passive, manual control—no fluid circuit, no power, no delay—perfect for backup or primary mechanical systems.
