Bowden cables are an excellent choice for mechanical power transmission. They offer many advantages like size, flexibility and configuration options. Wire cable, wire rope connector and all other components can be selected to match the configuration exactly to the required conditions.
More information:
Conventional Bowden cables transmit tensile forces. Push-pull control cables also transmit pressure forces.
A simple example: When a lever is pressed, a flap is opened via the Bowden cable. There are numerous other, naturally also more complex functions for which Bowden cables are used. You are not sure whether a Bowden cable can be used for the function you require. Ask us, we will be happy to advise you.
The advantage of Bowden cables or push-pull control cables:
You can assemble your own custom Bowden cable. The large number of standard components, wire cable, cable end connections and other used components gives you an overview of possible combinations. Our experts at Carl Stahl Technocables will be happy to advise you on feasibility and functionality. Production is possible from a certain number of pieces.

Bowden cables consist of a pressure-resistant spiral sleeve / Bowden cable sleeve in which there is a ready-made wire rope / Bowden cable core. A flexible inner tube is installed around the rope as required. A Bowden cable end piece / cable end connections, such as a ball, eyelet, shank end stop, ... is attached to both ends of the rope for installation.
Further details about bowden cable
When creating a Bowden cable / pull-push control cable, there are extensive possibilities for variation. Your Bowden cable can be tailor-made for your application. Standard components on stock like wire rope cable connectors and wire ropes or special components manufactured for you can be used for this.
This can be done using standard components from stock such as wire rope connectors and wire ropes, or custom made components from a certain production quantity.
You can find out more about the components:
Bowden cables are used where power transmission is required. Examples of this are e.g. brakes, gearshifts, trigger mechanisms, unlocking mechanisms. Due to the possibility of using a wide variety of rope configurations, rope diameters, materials and components, Bowden cables are used in a wide variety of areas. More about possible areas of application
The Bowden cable is attached via the swaged or die-cast cable end connection selected by the customer. Various end pieces such as ball, eyelet, thread, nipple, ... are possible. These are hung or clamped on the machine part. Excessive bending and chafing of the rope should be avoided during installation. You can read about the respective advantages of the rope end connections here. Bowden cables are supplied by us ready for installation according to the requirements of our customers.
Push-Pull Bowden cable is a term used for a Bowden cable that can transmit both tensile forces and compressive forces. The name comes from the way the Bowden cable works.
