SeaStar HF6007 Add-A-Station/Autopilot Fitting Kit, 3/8 Inch ORB Compression Fittings

The SeaStar HF6007 Add-A-Station/Autopilot Fitting Kit supplies the compression fittings needed to add a second helm station or an autopilot connection to a SeaStar manual hydraulic steering system. All SeaStar manual hydraulic steering systems use the same style of fitting across applications, so this kit uses the same 3/8 inch compression fitting design with a 9/16-24 extra fine thread and a -5 ORB (O-ring boss) connection found throughout the SeaStar hydraulic line.

The kit contains two straight fittings (3/8 inch tube, -5 ORB) and two tee fittings (2 x 3/8 inch tube, -5 ORB), giving an installer the parts needed to branch an existing hydraulic steering line to a new station or autopilot pump without replacing the whole hose run. Fitting bodies are black plastic. Because the fitting style is common across the SeaStar manual hydraulic steering line, this kit is intended for use with SeaStar manual hydraulic steering systems generally rather than one specific helm or cylinder model.
