About Flexible Drive

Every day, millions of people rely on vehicles, machinery and equipment to move goods, provide essential services and keep industries operating. Behind many of these critical assets are the control systems that enable operators to steer, brake, shift gears, operate equipment, maintain visibility and safely control their environment.

With a history dating back to 1939 and more than 40 years of private ownership, Flexible Drive has established itself as a trusted Australian supplier of control systems, control cables, braking components, wiper systems, electronic controls and engineered replacement parts. We support Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), regulated fleets, government agencies and aftermarket distributors across the transport, defence, marine, aviation and industrial sectors.

Our expertise lies in designing, manufacturing and supplying integrated control solutions that improve safety, reliability and operational performance. From heavy vehicles, buses and rail applications to defence platforms, industrial equipment, marine vessels and specialised machinery, our products are engineered to perform in demanding environments where reliability is essential.

What sets Flexible Drive apart is our ability to combine engineering expertise, Australian manufacturing capability, global sourcing partnerships and technical support into complete solutions. Rather than simply supplying components, we work closely with customers to develop systems that deliver long-term value, reduced downtime and dependable performance throughout the life of the asset.

Today, Flexible Drive continues to help customers across Australia solve complex control challenges through innovative products, responsive service and a commitment to quality that has defined our business for over 8 decades. From our origins as specialist cable repairers, we have evolved into a leading supplier of control systems and replacement parts, supported by Australian engineering, design and manufacturing capabilities. Through expertise across eight major product categories, research partnerships with leading universities and adherence to ISO-certified quality standards, we deliver integrated solutions that help customers build, maintain and optimise critical equipment for the long term.
