Door Cables

Handcrafted custom door cables can be fabricated to your specifications, color, and configuration options. Our extensive stock of cable and fittings allow us to expedite the delivery process. Our custom door cables are pre-formed stainless steel and sealed with silicone rubber to prevent cracking from wear and climate changes. The silicone rubber coating does not separate from the cable and remains pliable for easy opening and closing of aircraft doors. Traceability of all materials and tests are maintained for our custom cables. Our extensive stock of cable and fittings allows us to provide expedited delivery to support our customers for most orders.
