When you are looking to have a fun vacation, one of the most common transportation methods is an RV. RVs are highly popular and come in all different styles and sizes. Even though they are not the biggest, the high-level technology often allows for nifty storage areas that allow you to save space. Some of the best space saving abilities on RVS include slide-out panels, foldaway beds, and hinging tables. To make all these components shift, swing, and stowaway properly, they rely on cable. In today’s blog we will be looking at the various uses of cable in RVs to demonstrate just how integral the product is in the success of your RV applications.
One product that is commonly used in RVs is coiled cable. Coiled cable is perfect for anyone looking to tow a trailer or RV. Coiled cable is tightly wound to prevent cable from dragging on the ground. We recommend high quality cables in order to have protection against abrasion, or worse, cable failure.
Another type of cables found on RVs is bed support system cable. These cables are used to reliably fold your bed out of the way when it is not being used. The folding mechanism is crucial to allow you to have enough space in the RV. These cables are commonly coated with a vinyl jacket to give them a smooth finish.
A third way that cable is used in RVS is deck support cable. The purpose of these cables is to keep your deck safe and secure. For toy haulers, we also manufacture party deck support cables rated up to 7,000 lbs.
A commonly used cable on your recreational vehicle is release cable. The cable is used to lift furniture out the way and will keep it safely secure. Bed tables that swing out the wall use this type of cable. It is important to have durable release cables to prevent any damage to your RV or injury from unstable furniture.
Slide out room system cables are also common in many modern campers as they will often have panels that slide away from the main body of the RV. Often referred to as slide-out rooms, these sections can be opened when the vehicle is stopped to allow for additional living space or closed prior to transit. These panels rely on cable systems to smoothly slide in and out without jamming.
The last type of cable found on RVs is winch cables. These cables are used to raise and lower pop-up camper systems.
