• Position on Vehicle: Rear brake system — parking-brake pull cable assembly, typically right-hand side or depending on specification (see model-specific routing).
• Function: Transfers the mechanical pull from the handbrake lever to the rear brakes, enabling the vehicle to be held securely when parked. Ensures full mobility of the handbrake mechanism and correct tension when released.
• Material & Construction: Durable steel cable core with corrosion-resistant outer sleeve, correct Porsche-style fittings at each end, and built to OE specifications for length, flexibility and durability.
• Applications: Ideal when the original cable shows signs of fraying, corrosion, excessive stretch, or when replacing the cable as part of a handbrake system overhaul on a classic Porsche 356.
The parking-brake cable is a vital mechanical link in your vehicle’s safety and convenience systems. When the cable is stretched, corroded or damaged, you may experience:
• Reduced parking-brake holding force
• Excess lever travel before engagement
• Uneven or inadequate brake application on the rear wheels
• Cosmetic, mechanical or corrosion damage at the cable ends or sheathing
Replacing the cable with a correctly unit ensures:
• Reliable and consistent parking-brake performance
• Accurate lever travel and symmetric action
• Restored mechanical integrity of the braking subsystem
• Improved safety for both road and stationary divisions of vehicle use
When to consider replacement:
• The parking-brake lever engages only after excessive clicks or seems weak.
• Visible corrosion, fraying or outer sleeve damage on the original cable.
• Cable has been reused many times or under-maintained.
• During restoration of a classic Porsche 356 where original hardware is aged or absent.
