Committed to Quality Since 1946
Orscheln Products is the leading global supplier of motion control systems. Our products keep your vehicles running smoothly.
For some aerospace applications, you will need specialized cables beyond the capabilities of our standard control cables. But we are aerospace cable manufacturers that specialize in custom solutions to any need, and that’s where our ball-bearing cables come into play.
Ball-bearing cables are less versatile than regular control cables, but their durability, efficiency, and resistance to linear stretch are second to none, making them the best choice for certain control configurations across many types of aircraft.
How We Help
Let us know if you’re interested in Orscheln for your control cables. We provide stock and customized control systems for OEMs, aircraft manufacturers, and airlines.
Many kinds of private civilian aircraft use ball-bearing cables throughout the fuselage. If you need cables in a specific configuration, let us know and we can custom-bend cables around your specs.
Ball-bearing cables need to be designed with specific bends in mind in order to maintain the ball’s ability to freely glide along the internal rails. Our expert team of engineers can work around your requirements to design and build the perfect cables for your private aircraft.
Airliners, charter planes, and other commercial vessels incorporate ball-bearing cables into many elements of their control systems.
