SeaStar HP6126 Helm Vent Plugs, 5-Pack, Black Plastic

The SeaStar HP6126 Helm Vent Plugs are replacement vent plugs designed for SeaStar hydraulic steering helms, sold in a pack of 5. These plugs seal the vent port on the helm housing, keeping hydraulic steering fluid contained and the system protected from contamination during normal operation and service. Each plug is molded from plastic in a black finish with a modern style, matching the low-profile look of SeaStar helm units. Because they are sold in a 5-pack, boat owners have spares on hand for routine helm maintenance, fluid changes, or in case a plug is lost or damaged during servicing. Replacing a worn, cracked, or missing vent plug helps prevent fluid leaks and keeps air and debris out of the steering system, supporting consistent, reliable steering feel. The compact plug is easy to install by hand during a helm service without special tools. This part is intended for use with SeaStar helm units that use this vent plug design.
