All recliner parts are universal. Makes of recliners, brand names or manufactures part numbers don’t mean anything.

1 Measure the complete length of the cable C from barrel to the very end of the “S”.,
2 Now measure the black plastic sheath B including the clips on both ends.
3 Measure the barrel diameter A. This is across the round face not the length and should be 6mm.
4 Sub track the complete cable length from the black plastic sheath length and this gives you the exposed cable length. This is the most important measurement. Your old cable can be shorter but still have the same exposed cable length as ours.
5 IF your cable is longer then 830mm or 965mm look at the 1100mm cable options. Choose “Cable Only” from the menu above

Remember to remove the cable from the handle before measuring. Cable Only is the whole cable assemble including the black plastic sheath, barrel, “S” end and clips.

The 830mm cable has a 6mm barrel – black plastic sheath 733mm and exposed cable length 97mm – Choose “830mm Cable – 97mm Exposed” from the drop down menu above
The 965mm cable has a 6mm barrel – black plastic sheath 826mm and exposed cable length 139mm – Choose “965mm Cable – 139mm Expoosed” from the drop down menu above

There are many different exposed cable lengths for this handle. The 110mm and 150mm exposed cables have an adjustable end on the cable meaning the exposed cable end can be adjusted back by 7mm maximum. For example the 150mm exposed cable can also be 143mm exposed.

1100mm Cable exposed 100mm – If your complete cable length is longer then the two listed above you may choose this option. Measure the exposed cable length from the black plastic clip to the very end of the “S”. Choose 1100mm Cable EXPOSED 100MM from the drop down menu above
1100mm Cable exposed 139mm – If your complete cable length is longer then the two listed above you may choose this option. Measure the exposed cable length from the black plastic clip to the very end of the “S”. Choose 1100mm Cable EXPOSED 139MM from the drop down menu above.
