Blue Max Control Cable for Aviation Systems
— Precision Cable Solutions for Space-Critical, High-Performance Environments
When every inch and every degree counts, the Blue Max push-pull control cable delivers the precision and endurance that aerospace systems demand. Specifically engineered for aircraft throttle, environmental controls, flap actuators, and cockpit mechanisms, this cable system balances extreme flexibility, temperature resilience, and compact routing in one aviation-grade assembly.
Designed for Aviation’s Toughest Conditions
Unlike standard cables, Blue Max features a PTFE-lined conduit, high-lubricity core, and durable sheathing — engineered to support:
• High-Temperature Exposure: -65°F to +350°F
• Tight Routing Paths: Bend radius as low as 4 inches
• Low Friction Actuation: PTFE core liner + coated inner wire
• Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel construction
• Lightweight System Integration: Ideal for space-restricted fuselage & cockpit zones
