Not exactly what you are looking for but you can use BOWDEN CABLE CLAMP from ACS with the cut-to-length type cable.

Thanks Ray- I didn't know they made something like that. I suppose if I can't find a cable with the end on it that would still work just as well.

Interesting, are those plastic lines rated for the high pressure side of the brake system? mine are aluminum.

Is something like:

Yes. A lot of airplanes use those plastic brake lines and they work well. This picture is not of an RV (It's a Zenith Cruzer).

Joe, This is the cable I ordered from A/C Spruce: http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalo...clickkey=13810
As you can see there is no real end to it for securing it. It is meant to cut and then I guess use the mount that Ray posted a link to. That would work. But I was hoping to return this cable to Spruce and buy one with an end attached to it. But the more I think about it though I think I'll use this one as I can cut it to the exact length I need, and then I'll buy that piece in Ray's link to secure the end. That will work well. |
Got it! I misunderstood what you meant by "cable end". You need something to hold the cable housing in place, not something to attach the wire to the lever. My bad...:o

Vans kits back in the day used these same lines all the way to the wheels but because of heat the lines would fail at the wheel cylinders so they were changed to metal. |
Mcfarlane Aviation makes cables with all kinds of ends
