We have acquired the former instrument parts and tooling inventory for motorcycles of SMITHS NORTH AMERICA.
Alpha Instruments of Toronto, bought the stock of Smiths Industries North America, which in turn came to Alberta as 8 tons of inventory.
This inventory was sorted as to cables, fittings and tools as well as motorcycle instruments and parts which became Vintage British Cables.
The automotive instruments did not remain in Alberta.
The 2 ring crimp is a tell tale sign of a SMITHS Cable. The 2 ring crimp will provide the best possible seal against moisture.
We use authentic plated steel armor on cables that specify it. We can add armor to any custom cable.
Measurement of Flexible Drives
The length of the Flexible Drive is measured over the abutment faces of the outer casing
