ABSTRACT:
A handbrake compensator for a motor vehicle includes a support having a tubular body receiving a spring and two opposing flanges. The support is connected to a load distributor element which transmits load from a primary cable to a secondary cable connected to a wheel. The load distributor element has two opposing wings provided with elongated slots which receive a cap screw which connects the load distributor element to the support. One of the slots has toothed edges so that the screw can be moved axially of the support to adjust the position of the load distributor element relative to the spring to thereby adjust tension of the cables.
