What is a Morse Cable?

The term "Morse cable" has become one of the most recognised names in mechanical control cables. Originally associated with Morse Controls, these cables became widely used throughout marine, industrial, agricultural, construction and transport industries.

Today, many people use the term Morse cable to describe almost any mechanical push-pull control cable, regardless of manufacturer.

Modern replacement cables are available from several leading manufacturers, including Multiflex, offering direct replacement solutions that meet or exceed original equipment specifications.
