It is a three-spoke wheel designed for a universal fit on boats using a standard 3\/4 inch tapered steering shaft, and it comes fitted with a 5\/8 inch hub nut, the thread size most commonly used on newer Sea Star and other hydraulic steering helms. A ball bearing PowerGrip control knob is included, letting the helmsman spin the wheel quickly through tight turns and maneuvers with one hand while retaining full control at speed. The center hub assembly includes a Delrin washer and center hub nut along with the control knob, so the wheel arrives ready to mount without needing to source additional hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e316 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in saltwater and marine environments better than standard 304 stainless, making this wheel suited to offshore and coastal powerboats. The polished finish matches common helm station hardware and provides a durable, easy-to-clean surface. Because hub nut thread size varies by helm manufacturer and age, confirm your boat uses a 5\/8 inch threaded shaft before ordering; the same wheel is also offered with 1\/2 inch and M12 nut options for other helm types.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lewmar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 89700820\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 316 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mirror Polished Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Spokes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaft Fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/4 inch tapered shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHub Nut Thread Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControl Knob:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ball bearing PowerGrip control knob included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Components:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ball bearing PowerGrip control knob, center Delrin washer, center hub nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.45625 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 year manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size steering shaft does the Lewmar 89700820 fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e This wheel fits a standard 3\/4 inch tapered steering shaft, the most common tapered shaft size used on powerboat helms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat hub nut thread size comes with this wheel?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Lewmar 89700820 comes with a 5\/8 inch hub nut, which is the thread size typically used on newer Sea Star and other hydraulic steering helms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this wheel work with an older Teleflex mechanical helm?\u003c\/strong\u003e Older Teleflex and other mechanical helms typically use a 1\/2 inch hub nut thread, not the 5\/8 inch nut included with the Lewmar 89700820, so a 1\/2 inch nut version would be the correct choice for that helm type.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the diameter of this steering wheel?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Lewmar 89700820 measures 13.5 inches in diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the wheel made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made from 316 stainless steel with a mirror polished finish, a grade chosen for its resistance to corrosion in saltwater and marine environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the control knob come installed or need to be purchased separately?\u003c\/strong\u003e A ball bearing PowerGrip control knob is included with the Lewmar 89700820, along with a center Delrin washer and center hub nut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many spokes does this steering wheel have?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Lewmar 89700820 is a three-spoke wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does this steering wheel weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Lewmar 89700820 weighs 4.45625 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this steering wheel compatible with M12 metric shafts?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Lewmar 89700820 uses a 5\/8 inch nut; a version with an M12 nut is offered separately for boats with metric steering hardware, commonly found on Flex and other metric-thread helm systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included in the box with this wheel?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Lewmar 89700820 ships with the steering wheel, a ball bearing PowerGrip control knob, a center Delrin washer, and a center hub nut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat warranty comes with this steering wheel?\u003c\/strong\u003e Lewmar backs the 89700820 steering wheel with a 3 year manufacturer warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lewmar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49025135018203,"sku":"LEW-89700820","price":187.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/512kHTmLZ2L.jpg?v=1785331024","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/lewmar-13-5-inch-powerboat-steering-wheel-with-powergrip-control-knob-5-8-inch-nut-316-stainless-steel","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
