Kato Cable | Powersports Cable Assemblies

A powersport cable assembly is a bundled configuration of electrical cables enclosed in a rugged outer jacket, designed to transmit power, control signals, or data within recreational and off-road vehicles. These assemblies serve as critical electrical pathways in motorcycles, ATVs, snowmobiles, personal watercraft, and utility terrain vehicles.

Powersport cable assemblies must be compact, flexible, and built to withstand rough terrain, moisture, mud, and temperature extremes. They are developed to meet the mechanical and environmental demands of high-performance equipment that operates in motion-heavy, vibration-prone environments.

Benefits
