Twist-to-Lock Control with Reliable Position Holding

The Phidix Twist-Lock Push-Pull Control Cable series is engineered for applications requiring secure mechanical locking of the control position. Through a simple quarter-turn twist of the T-handle, the cable locks in place, maintaining its position even in high-vibration environments.

This structure is especially suited for throttle/choke control, PTO systems, engine shut-off mechanisms, and valve operations in sectors like heavy-duty trucks, construction machinery, agricultural vehicles, and marine engines.

Whether you need full cable assemblies or customized knob, core, or output-end configurations, Phidix offers flexible manufacturing that meets your specific installation and durability needs.

Key Features

•  Twist-to-Lock Mechanism – Locks cable position with a quarter-turn twist, preventing unintended movement from vibration or shock.

•  Secure Manual Holding – Ideal for applications where a fixed actuator position must be manually maintained.

•  Modular Configuration – Available with various shaft sleeves (green/black), knob colors (black/red), core types (wire rope or standard core), and output ends (threaded/U-fork).

•  Rugged Construction – Designed for demanding industrial and vehicle environments; vibration-resistant and corrosion-tolerant.

•  OEM Ready – Built to support automotive standards such as IATF 16949; customizable for bulk/serial applications.

Typical Applications

Why it matters: In environments with vibration, slope, or continuous mechanical load, non-locking cables may slip. Twist-lock solutions ensure safety and consistent operation.
