Reviews

Ideal for my Cherokee PA28-180 (0-360A3A), instead of tired 486-570.

NOTE: This is a captive cable for the purposes of Mitchell tachometers. There is a shoulder that prevents the inner cable from sliding towards the tach any closer than 3/8 protrusion. Cable can be removed from sheath on engine side of cable only. Works good, but had to grind a little bit off the sides of the tach end of the inner cable so that it could physically fit into the tachometer drive hole.

Cable was the correct style for a pre-war Stewart & Warner gauge as used on Taylorcrafts, Aeronca, Luscombs, ect... Too short, however for my 41 BC-65 -- needs to be closer to 43 to clear the fuel tank.

If you hold the cable vertically looking at the keyed end, if the cable is wind is down from the left to the right it is left lay. If it is wound up from the left to the right it is right lay.

Q: One of the Q and A refers to the length of part # 05-21949 being 33. Is the 05-21950 cable also 33 long?

Part # 05-21950 is 34 inches long.

Q: Do you have to pull out the cable and grease it or is it already greased and ready to install when you buy it?

These would need to be greased before install.

Q: What is the best kind of grease (type and brand) to use on this cable before installing?

Per the manufacturer: the customer will need to get with their A&P mechanic to determine what grease is needed.

Q: On part #05-21949 what is the length of the inner cable (tip to tip)?

33.81

Q: Is this a captive cable? i was told my michelin that it has to be captive. If its not do you have a part# for captive cable?

The inner cable can be removed so we do not believe that it is a captive cable.

Q: I want to order part 05-21949, a tachometer cable. There is no designation as how to order a left hand lay or a right. How do I order the correct lay designation? I need the left.

These cables will work for both per the vendor.
