It is engineered as a drop-in replacement for original equipment control cables on Mariner, Mercury, and MerCruiser engines, as well as other engines that use Mercury 2003-date 4000 Series Controls, and connects using the existing control head connection components with no modification required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstruction starts with stainless steel terminals and brass fittings for corrosion resistance, paired with stainless or nylon covered core wires and moisture protective seals that guard against water intrusion along the length of the cable. The core rides inside a long-wearing HDPE liner that is ultra smooth and lubricated for life, reducing friction and lost motion at the helm. A black HDPE outer jacket resists abrasion and withstands UV exposure, salt water, chemicals, gasoline, and oil, and the cable is built with an 8-inch minimum bend radius so it can be routed through tight engine compartments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe XTREME designation means this cable is optimized for long cable runs, twin-station setups, and other demanding routings with multiple bends, where a smooth, low-effort feel at the control is essential. Every SeaStar control cable is environmentally tested for marine use and exceeds ABYC safety standards and ISO\/IMCI\/NMMA certification requirements. The CCX18914 is manufactured in the U.S.A. And is lubricated at the factory for life. Before ordering, confirm 14 feet is the correct cable length for your specific control-to-engine run, since control cables are not adjustable in length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e SeaStar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e CCX18914\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gen II XTREME Control Cable (premium)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter Jacket Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e HDPE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTerminal Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCore Wire Covering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless or nylon covered with moisture protective seals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Bend Radius:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Wires:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Controls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mercury 4000 Series Controls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in the U.S.A.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 808282272609\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMariner, Mercury, and MerCruiser engines and other engines using Mercury 2003-date 4000 Series Controls\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the SeaStar CCX18914 control cable used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CCX18914 is a 14-foot XTREME technology control cable that connects an engine control head to the throttle and shift mechanism on Mariner, Mercury, and MerCruiser engines and other engines using Mercury 2003-date 4000 Series Controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this cable fit my Mercury outboard or MerCruiser sterndrive?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CCX18914 fits Mariner, Mercury, and MerCruiser engines, and other engines that use Mercury 2003-date 4000 Series Controls;
