Control Cables

Because control cables carry load and control position over long distances, they must operate reliably for many cycles over long periods of time. Due to the flexible nature of control cables, a great deal of friction is generated between the outer sheath and inner cable, but the right lubricant can keep that friction to a minimum.

MOLYKOTE^® Oils and Greases offer wide temperature and good surface-wetting characteristics. Synthetic and silicone lubricants commonly are used on these popular components.
