Pull-Only Tension Control Cables – Versatile, Configurable, and Cost-Effective

Phidix's Pull-Only Tension Cable Assemblies offer a flexible and efficient solution for mechanical control systems that require unidirectional motion transfer. Designed for use in applications like throttle actuation, valve engagement, or seat releases, these cables deliver reliable pull performance while supporting a variety of end fitting combinations and routing options.

What Is a Pull-Only Tension Cable?

Pull-only tension cables are designed to transmit motion in one direction—typically from a control knob, lever, or panel switch to a mechanical actuator. Unlike push-pull systems, these cables are lighter, more compact, and ideal for systems that don’t require return force through the cable.

Common use cases include:
