SeaStar HO5126 Outboard Hydraulic Steering Hose Kit, Standard, 26 Feet (2 Hoses)

The SeaStar HO5126 is a standard-duty outboard hydraulic steering hose kit built for connecting a SeaStar hydraulic helm pump to an outboard steering cylinder. It is supplied as a fixed-length kit of two 26 foot hoses and, like all hoses in the HO51xx standard line, is sold in preset lengths only -- it cannot be cut to length in the field, so the correct length must be selected at time of order. The two-hose configuration matches the pressure and return line requirement of a single-engine outboard hydraulic steering installation, running from the helm at the console back to the steering cylinder connection at the engine.

This is the standard hose option within SeaStar's outboard hose lineup (identified by the HO51xx part number series), as distinct from the Xtreme-duty HO57xx series. For installations that use rigid tubing instead of flexible hose for part of the run, SeaStar also offers a copper tube and hose kit as an alternate routing option. The HO5126 kit weighs 4.14 pounds.

What does the HO5126 hose connect to? This hose kit runs from the SeaStar hydraulic helm pump to the outboard steering cylinder in a single engine hydraulic steering setup.
