Technical Specifications

Applications Across Vehicle Models

The ABS K10061 cable is engineered to fit seamlessly into the braking systems of numerous vehicles. Below are some representative applications:

• Ford: C‑Max, Focus, Focus 2 – The cable interfaces with the vehicle’s parking brake lever and rear drum or disc assembly.
• Volvo: V50, C30 – Integrated into the rear braking system to provide reliable stationary hold on varied road surfaces.

In each case, the cable’s robust construction ensures that the parking brake remains fully functional over extended periods of use, even when subjected to temperature extremes or heavy load conditions.

Installation Guidance

1. Preparation: Verify that the vehicle’s existing handbrake lever and cable housing are compatible with the K10061 specifications. Remove any old or damaged cables before proceeding.
2. Mounting: Secure the cable to the designated mounting points on the brake assembly, ensuring a snug fit without overtightening.
3. Tension Adjustment: Use the provided tension gauge or follow the manufacturer’s torque settings to achieve the correct preload. This step is critical for optimal braking performance.
4. Testing: After installation, engage the parking brake fully and release it several times to confirm smooth operation and proper cable slack.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect the cable periodically for signs of corrosion or wear. Replace immediately if any damage is observed.
• Avoid over‑tightening during installation, as excessive tension can lead to premature failure.
• Keep the cable housing clean and free from debris that could impede movement.
