In the paper the notion of truncating twisting function $\tau :X\to Q$ from a simplicial set $X$ to a cubical set $Q$ and the corresponding notion of twisted Cartesian product of these sets $X\times_{ \tau}Q$ are introduced. The latter becomes a cubical set whose chain complex coincides with the standard twisted tensor product $C_*(X)\otimes_{ \tau_*}C_*(Q)$. This construction together with the theory of twisted tensor products for homotopy G-algebras allows to obtain multiplicative models for fibrations.
