Handbrake Cables

Hand Brake cables operate the emergency brake usually located on the rear brakes. The handbrake cable is used to connect the handbrake lever to the parking brakes on the rear wheels of the car. Without a fully operational cable, there is no way of securing the car when on uneven ground or preventing it from rolling downhill.

Handbrake cables wear out and fray over time and require immediate replacement. A wide range of quality handbrake cables for any car are available and when fitting, it is important to ensure that the proper cable tension is applied to ensure effective handbrake function.
