This OE match rubber boot is a direct replacement for the original Porsche component used in the handbrake cable system of 356 models. Installed at key entry/exit points - typically within the central tunnel - it provides a protective seal around the handbrake cable.
Sold individually
Fits:
Porsche 356 A/540.1 1950 - 1959
Porsche 356 B / 356 C 1960 - 1965
Diagram ref no 29
This rubber boot seals the opening where the handbrake cable passes through the chassis, preventing dirt, moisture, and debris from entering the tunnel. It helps protect the cable from contamination and reduces wear, ensuring smooth and reliable handbrake operation.
This small yet essential component is ideal for restoration or maintenance, preserving both the functionality and originality of the Porsche 356 chassis and braking system.
Function
• Seals handbrake cable entry point within chassis
• Prevents ingress of dirt, water, and debris
• Protects cable from premature wear and corrosion
• Maintains smooth cable movement and operation
• Helps preserve internal tunnel components
Over time, rubber boots can crack, harden, or deteriorate due to age and exposure. A damaged boot allows dirt and moisture into the cable tunnel, which can lead to corrosion, increased friction, and reduced handbrake performance. Replacing it ensures proper sealing, protects internal components, and maintains reliable operation.
When to replace
• Rubber is cracked, brittle, or split
• Signs of dirt or moisture entering tunnel
• During handbrake cable replacement or service
• Increased resistance or stiffness in handbrake operation
• As part of chassis restoration or refurbishment

• Position on Vehicle: Installed in the rear braking system; the cable runs from the hand brake lever inside the vehicle to the rear brake assembly or equaliser.
• Function: Transfers the mechanical pull from the handbrake lever to the rear brakes, enabling the vehicle to be held securely when parked. Ensures full mobility of the handbrake mechanism and correct tension when released.
• Material & Construction: Durable steel cable core with corrosion-resistant outer sleeve, correct Porsche-style fittings at each end, and built to OE specifications for length, flexibility and durability.
• Applications: Ideal when the original cable shows signs of fraying, corrosion, excessive stretch, or when replacing the cable as part of a handbrake system overhaul on a classic Porsche 356.
The parking brake cable is a critical mechanical element of the vehicle’s handbrake system. If the cable is worn, overly stretched, corroded or incorrectly fitted, common issues include:
• Loss of parking brake holding force or slipping on incline
• Excess travel in the handbrake lever before engagement
• Uneven brake wear or incomplete release causing dragging
• Safety risk during parking or in emergency braking situations
Replacing the cable ensures proper handbrake operation, restores confident stopping/holding ability and protects against unwanted mechanical failure.
When to replace:
• The lever engages only after several clicks or feels weak
• The original cable shows visible external damage (rust, fray, broken outer sleeve)
• Rear brake shoes/pads are replaced and the handbrake linkage is exposed
• Vehicle is undergoing restoration and original cables are aged or suspect

The parking-brake cable is a vital mechanical link in your vehicle’s safety and convenience systems. When the cable is stretched, corroded or damaged, you may experience:
• Reduced parking-brake holding force
• Excess lever travel before engagement
• Uneven or inadequate brake application on the rear wheels
• Cosmetic, mechanical or corrosion damage at the cable ends or sheathing
Replacing the cable with a correctly unit ensures:
• Reliable and consistent parking-brake performance
• Accurate lever travel and symmetric action
• Restored mechanical integrity of the braking subsystem
• Improved safety for both road and stationary divisions of vehicle use
When to consider replacement:
• The parking-brake lever engages only after excessive clicks or seems weak.
• Visible corrosion, fraying or outer sleeve damage on the original cable.
• Cable has been reused many times or under-maintained.
• During restoration of a classic Porsche 356 where original hardware is aged or absent.

The OE Match handbrake pressure spring is a replacement manufactured to original Porsche specifications. This spring restores proper tension and smooth handbrake operation, ensuring reliable engagement and authentic performance.
Fits:
Porsche 356 A/540.1 1950-55
Porsche 356 B / C 1950-1965

This pressure spring is a key part of the handbrake lever and cable assembly, maintaining proper return tension and engagement feel. It ensures that the handbrake lever operates smoothly, providing consistent resistance and reliable locking when applied.
Why replacement matters:
Over time, original springs can weaken, corrode, or lose tension due to continuous use and exposure to heat and moisture. A weakened spring may cause poor lever return, uneven braking force, or unreliable handbrake hold. Installing an replacement restores the correct tension, engagement feel, and dependable operation of the handbrake system.

OEMatch HandBrake Cables — Stopping Power, Consistent Control
OEMatch handbrake cables for Porsche models restore reliable parking brake function and consistent lever feel. These cables are prepared to original-spec dimensions and tolerances where applicable, providing a practical alternative when manufacturer parts are not available and helping to maintain safe, predictable parking and emergency braking behaviour.
Available Types
- Standard replacement cables for common Porsche rear brake assemblies, made to match model-specific lengths and end fittings.
Understanding OEMatch HandBrake Cables
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original handbrake cables. OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the handbrake cables and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM handbrake cables engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.
Handbrake cables form the mechanical link between the handbrake lever and the rear brake mechanisms, transmitting tension to hold the vehicle securely when parked and serving as a secondary braking measure if needed. OEMatch provides a wide selection of Porsche parts and components; its catalogue includes over 4,000 part numbers and some 8,700 OE cross-references and continues to expand with additional product lines under development.
Benefits Include
- Restores firm parking brake hold and consistent lever travel.
- Corrosion-resistant materials for improved durability in wet or salted conditions.
- Model-specific lengths and end fittings to help preserve correct cable tension and balance between rear wheels.
Why HandBrake Cables Wear and Fail
- Corrosion or rust inside the housing that impedes smooth movement.
- Cable stretching, fraying or broken strands from repeated use and load.
- Water, dirt or debris ingress causing stiffness, seizure or sheath deterioration.
The Importance of Replacing with OEMatch HandBrake Cables
Replacing worn or damaged handbrake cables restores dependable parking brake performance and reduces the risk of uneven rear brake engagement. Timely renewal helps maintain legal compliance for roadworthiness, preserves lever travel and tension, and reduces the likelihood of cable seizure or failure when the vehicle is parked on an incline or during emergency use. For Porsche models, correctly sized and finished cables contribute to predictable system behaviour and long service life.
Advantages
- Prepared to original-spec dimensions where applicable to aid accurate fitment.
- Constructed from corrosion-resistant materials and durable fittings to improve longevity.
- Designed for straightforward replacement using existing mounting points and fixings.
Support & Advice
These items affect safety-critical systems. Installation should be carried out by a qualified technician following model-specific procedures and torque settings. Use calibrated tools and new fasteners where specified and recheck fasteners after initial mileage.
