Proper filling and venting of a hydraulic helm is essential to removing trapped air from the system, which helps maintain smooth, consistent steering response at the wheel. The kit features a polished exterior finish that matches typical helm and dash hardware, so it installs cleanly without looking out of place. Because it is purpose-built for the SS1250V and SS1275V helm models, it is sized and configured to thread directly into the fill and vent ports on those units without modification. This kit is a practical item to have on hand for boat builders, dealers, and boat owners performing steering system fills, bleeds, or fluid top-offs, and it is a straightforward way to replace a lost, damaged, or corroded original fill\/vent plug on a compatible helm.\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 HA5450\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Helms:\u003c\/strong\u003e SS1250V, SS1275V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polished\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 x 10 x 1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 731957801166\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the SeaStar HA5450 kit used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The HA5450 is a remote fill and vent plug kit used to fill and vent the hydraulic fluid system on SS1250V and SS1275V steering helms, which is necessary to remove trapped air and maintain smooth steering response.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich helm models does the HA5450 fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e This kit is designed specifically for SS1250V and SS1275V helms; it is not intended for other SeaStar helm models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat finish does the HA5450 fill and vent plug kit have?\u003c\/strong\u003e It comes with a polished exterior finish, matching the look of typical helm and dash hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the HA5450 kit weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SeaStar HA5450 weighs 0.45 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the package dimensions of the HA5450 kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The kit ships in packaging measuring 12 x 10 x 1 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do I need to vent a hydraulic steering helm?\u003c\/strong\u003e Venting removes trapped air from the hydraulic lines and helm, which prevents spongy or inconsistent steering feel; the HA5450 kit provides the fill and vent point needed to do this on SS1250V and SS1275V helms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use the HA5450 to replace a lost or damaged original plug?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the HA5450 is a direct replacement fill and vent plug kit for SS1250V and SS1275V helms if the original plug is lost, damaged, or corroded.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the HA5450 kit genuine SeaStar equipment?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the HA5450 is a genuine SeaStar part number designed and sold specifically for SS1250V and SS1275V helm units.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included with the HA5450 kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The HA5450 kit includes the fill and vent plug hardware needed to service the fill\/vent port on a compatible SS1250V or SS1275V helm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the HA5450 require any special tools to install?\u003c\/strong\u003e The HA5450 fill and vent plug threads into the existing port on SS1250V and SS1275V helms and does not require modification to the helm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SeaStar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48989347938523,"sku":"TEL-HA5450","price":85.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/tel-ha5450_lg__89163.1558181314.500.750.jpg?v=1785188211","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/seastar-ha5450-remote-fill-and-vent-plug-kit-for-ss1250v-and-ss1275v-hydraulic-helms","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
