The AB Tools Long Life Trailer Brake Cables are designed for trailer owners and mechanics maintaining Knott or Ifor Williams trailer systems who prioritize durability and reliable braking performance. These cables feature a specialized blue protective sleeve that significantly extends the lifespan of the inner cable, though users must ensure their trailer system specifically requires an 1130mm outer sheath length to guarantee proper fitment before installation.

Adjust the M8 threaded nut at the equalizer to increase tension on the cable.
Check that the cable is not kinked and verify that the brake shoe return springs are functioning correctly.
Ensure the brake lever is fully in the 'off' position to allow maximum slack in the cable.
Installation requires basic mechanical knowledge and an understanding of your trailer's brake adjustment procedure.
