Control cable systems by Bergen Cable work for numerous functions

Bergen Cable distributes two kinds of control cables.

As one of North America’s top cable suppliers, Bergen Cable is a major source for various industrial cable solutions. From its own unique safety-cable technology to lanyards, miniature cables, and custom assemblies, Bergen is the place to go for many products. Another example is the company’s line of control cable systems.

Control cables are highly useful in a number of major industries, from aerospace to the military. They fulfill many important functions in these sectors.

Precise transmission of mechanical motion

Bergen Cable offers control cable systems that are used for precise transmission of mechanical motion. Among the many functions that these cables perform are throttle control, brake control, power takeoff, release actuation, and engagement and disengagement of different systems. They are created either with Bergen’s own standard components or with its versatile machining capabilities – the latter to customize cable systems for clients’ unique or specific applications.

Common applications in which control cable systems come in handy include the following:

• ATVs;
• Construction vehicles and equipment;
• Fixed-wing aircraft systems;
• Helicopter systems;
• HVAC controls;
• Industrial systems;
• Medical equipment;
• Military equipment and vehicles;
• Outdoor power equipment;
• Utility vehicles; and
• Wheelchairs.

Bergen Cable supplies two categories of control cables: Push-Pull and Pull-Pull. With Push-Pull cables, motion is applied by compression in one direction and by tension in the opposite directions. With Pull-Pull cables, motion is applied by tension, while the control is returned to its original position by spring actuation.

Control cables make up just one of the many types of cable and wire-rope products that Bergen distributes across the continent. These can range in size from miniature to 3/8 of an inch in diameter. Bulk cable is available for a minimum order of US$150, and electrical and jacketed cable products are also available.

Trust Bergen Cable for control cables of the highest quality.
