Brake Cables

Brake cables are key components of the handbrake system, responsible for transferring force from the brake lever to the brake mechanisms in the rear wheels of the vehicle. Their smooth operation is essential for the effectiveness of the handbrake, which ensures safety when standing still and manoeuvring on slopes. At Global Parts automotive store you will find a wide selection of used car parts , including brake cables, ideal for BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini and others .

What are the functions of brake cables ?

Brake cables play an important role in the operation of the handbrake:

• Power transmission – Connects the handbrake lever to the brake mechanisms, enabling effective brake application.
• Wheel Locking – Keeps the vehicle in place when stationary, even on slopes.
• Maneuvering support – Enables precise vehicle control when starting uphill.

Why is it worth taking care of brake cables ?

Worn or damaged brake cables can reduce the effectiveness of the parking brake and increase the risk of uncontrolled vehicle movement. Typical symptoms of failure include:

• Loose handbrake lever – May indicate excessive stretch or a broken cable.
• Ineffective braking – No response from wheels when the handbrake is applied.
• Difficulty engaging the brake – Resistance when using the lever may be due to corrosion or damage to the cable. If you need a replacement, you will find the right used car parts at Global Parts that will restore full functionality of your braking system.
