SeaStar Ball Joint 029104 - 40 Series Cable Control, Quick Release, 5/16-24 Thread

The SeaStar 029104 is a quick release (QR) ball joint for 40 Series (6400/64) cable connection kits, designed to attach a control cable to a steering or throttle/shift lever. It uses a 5/16-24 thread and features an external spring over the ball receptor, which is the identifying feature of the QR type versus the standard (ST) version. The kit comes complete with a nut and lockwasher for installation, and is built for use with one cable per joint.

Length on this ball joint is measured from the center of the stud to the end of the barrel, which is the standard way SeaStar specifies cable connection hardware so it can be matched correctly to the cable and lever setup. This ball joint is a common wear and replacement item in cable-actuated marine steering and control systems, and is sized to work with SeaStar's 40 Series (6400/64) cable line.
