Brake cable ferrules Clarks CX102DP black, pack of 3

Clarks CX102DP brake cable ferrules in black are small end caps designed to finish and protect bicycle brake cable ends. Supplied as a pack of three, these ferrules provide neat termination of the brake cable housing and help prevent cable fraying while ensuring consistent seating in brake levers and calipers. The combination of metal and plastic construction offers a balance of durability and precise fit for common cable housings used on many bikes.

Advantages

These ferrules deliver clean, professional-looking cable ends and reduce the risk of housing deformation at the termination point. Their construction improves long-term cable routing by protecting the inner cable from wear and dirt intrusion, and they are compatible with typical brake cable housings and standard lever and caliper interfaces. The black finish provides a discreet appearance that matches most bike components.

Suitable for

• Finishing and protecting bicycle brake cable housings
• Brake cable repairs and replacements
• Road, city and hybrid bikes with standard brake cable systems

Key specifications

• Pack quantity: 3 ferrules
• Colour: black
• Material: metal and plastic components for strength and fit
• Intended use: brake cable housing termination
• Compatibility: designed for standard brake cable housings and common lever/caliper interfaces

How to use

Slide a ferrule onto the end of the brake cable housing before inserting the inner cable. Ensure the housing is cut square and free of burrs so the ferrule seats evenly. Push the ferrule fully onto the housing until it sits flush against the housing end and the lever or caliper entry point. After fitting, check cable routing and brake operation, and make any necessary tension or alignment adjustments to ensure reliable braking performance.

Usage recommendations

For best results, trim the cable housing with a proper cable cutter to create a clean, square end. Replace ferrules whenever you replace brake housings or if the ferrule shows wear or deformation. If corrosion is a concern, inspect metal parts regularly and consider replacing ferrules as part of routine brake maintenance.
