The Matco Tools Parking Brake Cable Coupler Removal Tool, No. PBP1050, is versatile set of 14" pliers designed to assist with disconnecting and reconnecting brake cables, without the risk of injury. They are designed for use on light duty trucks, SUVs, vans and passenger vehicles with either drum or disc brakes, which are usually rear-wheel drive. The one-handed operation safely and quickly disassembles the mid-cable coupler from the cable end. Sliding the handles to different setting reverses the operation for reassembly of the coupler and cable. These pliers are heat-treated for durability and work on vehicles from the 1980s to current year production.
