Shimano Polymer Coated Brake Cable Info
The Shimano Polymer Coated Brake Cable is designed for Shimano 9000-series and newer brakes — the polymer coating requires a stronger cable fixing bolt, making it incompatible with older groupsets like Dura-Ace 7900. Attempting to use these cables with earlier brakes risks the cable slipping under the pinch bolt, so Shimano explicitly recommends using them only with compatible systems.
The coating is designed to eliminate the need for lubrication throughout the cable's service life, keeping maintenance low and lever feel consistent over time. Clean, smooth action without grease intervals.
