Valve Control Cables

Valve Control Cables connect a hand-operated control lever to a remote hydraulic valve body, valve spool, mixer valve, or similar control point. They are commonly used on heavy equipment and mobile machinery where the operator control needs to be located away from the hydraulic valve.

Application fit

Valve Control Cables include replacement and custom-length assemblies for hydraulic controls, mixer controls, RVO/RVC controls, Walvoil-style replacement cables, and related valve cable applications.

Cable options

Base cable options use the drawing, connection details, and custom overall length to define the assembly.

Common uses

Valve Control Cables are used when an operator needs to control a hydraulic valve from a remote location. Common applications include hydraulic control levers, directional control valves, valve spools, mixer controls, remote valve controls, replacement valve cables, and equipment control stations. They are often found on construction equipment, agricultural equipment, excavators, dozers, loaders, tractors, dump trucks, snow plows, sweepers, marine equipment, industrial machinery, and specialty vehicles.

Engineering fit

A Valve Control Cable is usually the right choice when the application already has a hydraulic valve body or valve control assembly and needs a cable between the operator control and the valve. This allows the control lever to be located in a convenient operator position while the valve remains mounted elsewhere on the equipment. For many valve cable assemblies, the main selection steps are choosing the correct base part number and specifying the required cable length.

Base-number format

Many valve control cables use a base-number-plus-length format rather than a full build chart. The drawing, connection style, base number, and required length define the quoted assembly.

Quote details

Base part number, cable length, connection style, mounting details, end fittings, application notes, and replacement photos help sales verify the correct valve cable application.
