ABSTRACT:
A braided inner cable (10) for a mechanical control cable assembly (36) having a construction which provides for the use of fibers (14), (22) and (24) which are arranged in a three layer construction in which an inner longitudinal fiber core (12) is bound within a second braided fiber layer (16). A final pressure extruded outer jacket layer (30) surrounds the braided fiber layer (16), and permeates any spaces therebetween. The resulting inner control cable (10) is of a size and shape to fit standard commercially available outer cable housings (34). The inventive inner control cable (10) is intended to be used in applications such as for clutch cables on motorcycles and control cables on bicycles. Standard prior art ferrules (40), are installed on the inventive cable (10) by means of an epoxy adhesive (41).
