Brake/Cable End Caps Clarks PRE LUBE Aluminium Sealed 50 pcs (CLA-CF505-50)

Clarks PRE LUBE Aluminium Sealed End Caps, pack of 50, are designed for use with bicycle brake and derailleur cables. These metal cable ends provide a neat sealed finish that prevents wire strands from fraying and helps keep cable terminations clean. The caps are pre-lubricated to reduce corrosion and abrasion at the cut ends of cables, making them suitable for both workshop technicians and home mechanics performing cable replacement and general maintenance.

Advantages

These aluminium sealed end caps combine mechanical protection with a pre-applied lubricant layer to reduce wear and resist corrosion at the cable termination. Their metal construction offers greater durability than plastic alternatives and helps maintain a secure crimped finish. Supplied in a pack of 50, the set is convenient for servicing multiple bicycles or for stocking a workshop with spare parts.

Suitable for

• Brake cable termination on road, mountain and hybrid bicycles
• Derailleur cable ends and shift cable maintenance
• Workshop repairs, routine bicycle servicing and home bike maintenance

Key specifications

• Material: aluminium body with sealed construction
• Finish: pre-lubricated inner surface to reduce corrosion and wear
• Quantity: 50 pieces per pack
• Compatibility: designed for standard bicycle brake and derailleur cables
• Function: prevents fraying and provides a sealed cable termination

How to use

Trim the cable to the required length, slide the Clarks aluminium end cap onto the cut cable, and crimp securely with appropriate cable end pliers or a crimping tool to achieve a sealed finish. Ensure excess lubricant is wiped away from surrounding components after installation. Verify that the crimped cap does not impede cable routing or housing and perform a functional check of brakes or gear shifting before riding.

Usage recommendations

For reliable results, use a proper cable cutter to produce a clean end before fitting the cap, and crimp firmly once in position. Store spare caps in a dry place to preserve the pre-lubrication layer. When servicing multiple bikes, inspect cable housings and ferrules and replace any worn components to maintain overall cable system performance.
