Push pull control cables
Push pull control cables
Choosing the right control cable assembly is a crucial part of the designing and engineering of mechanical components and analog systems. Push pull control cables activate equipment by transmitting physical force through machinery. Though push pull cable operation may seem easy and effortless, there is a great deal of engineering knowledge and experience that is required to design the proper push pull control cable and pull cables to fit an application exactly.
The first consideration, regarding control cables and push pull cables, is the type of treatment they must endure and withstand in the harshest of conditions. To ensure the best and most reliable performance, Tyler Madison manufactures the highest quality wire rope in the assembling, manufacturing, and producing their control cable assemblies, which are tested multiple times to guarantee exceptional performance and durability.
Control Cable Assemblies
Control Cable Assemblies (also known as Push-Pull Assemblies and Pull Assemblies) are used in numerous applications requiring the transmission of force. These push pull cable assemblies are flexible enough to transmit forces in multiple directions through machinery. We have built custom push-pull control cables for the aircraft, lawn and garden, exercise equipment, medical, office equipment and automotive industries.

Types of Control Cable Assemblies
There are two types of Control Cable Assemblies:
Push-Pull Assemblies
Push-Pull Assemblies are used when the transmission of force is required in both directions of the assembly travel. A choke on a lawn mower engine is a good example of this.
Custom push-pull assemblies offer multidirectional control for precise and accurate control of mechanical motion. The basic design and function of push pull assemblies makes them flexible and adaptable to fit into a wide variety of applications. The solid wire fittings of push pull assemblies make it easy to attach them to an assortment of connecting points on equipment, complicated control systems, or automated machinery.
The variety of hardwired end points of push pull assemblies ensures a secure and reliable connection to any type of device. The versatility of push pull assemblies offers a dependable way of motion transmission between fixed points or ones that constantly change their relative position.
