Overview

WIRE GRIP - Is a unique fitting which securely attaches to solid wire end push-pull cables. Uses a "pin vice" gripping action to attach a cable. The 5/8" long 10-32 threaded end will attach a clevis, ball joint, or other hardware for use with mixture controls, carb heat box, cabin air, or other applications, resulting in a clean, professional installation.

Note: Use PN 05-16001 on A790 ACS controls.

WIRE GRIP FOR .078 DIA-RED

December 21, 2023

I never saw one of these until I was replacing my throttle cable. At first, I was skeptical to the holding strength... they are precision made, the bowden cable fits snug before tightening.. grips hard.....make sure all parts are clean before assembling..

Im loving this product so far. My only concern is longevity and dependability. If I designed this I would have added a lock-nut behind the wire-catch.

Clever solution for connecting Bowden cable to threaded terminal. Well made. I pull tested after assembling wire grip to cable and it withstood a 100 pound pull with no sign of slippage.
