AL-KO Safety Brake Cable (4018003)

AL-KO Safety Brake Cable

Genuine AL-KO safety brake cable for caravan and trailer breakaway systems. This cable connects the breakaway mechanism to the caravan brakes, automatically applying the brakes if the caravan becomes detached from the tow vehicle. It is a legal requirement for trailers over 750kg and must be in perfect condition at all times.

Key Features

• Genuine AL-KO replacement part (4018003)
• Safety-critical breakaway cable
• Automatically applies caravan brakes on separation from tow vehicle
• Legal requirement for caravans and trailers over 750kg
• Inspect before every journey — replace immediately if damaged
• High-strength steel cable construction

When to Replace

Replace immediately if the cable shows any sign of fraying, corrosion, kinking, or damage. The breakaway system must function perfectly — a compromised cable could fail to activate the brakes in an emergency.

Installation

Attach to the fixed breakaway cable point on the tow vehicle — never to the towball or electrical socket. Ensure correct length so the cable is taut when hitched but does not restrict articulation.
