It is designed for helms that use plastic tubes with plastic nuts, and it is a drop-in replacement for the original tube supplied by SeaStar Solutions. This part is compatible with SeaStar Solutions Big-T, Safe-T \"TS\", and Safe-T Quick Connect (QC) rotary steering helm models. It is molded from corrosion resistant, marine-grade plastic in yellow, built to hold up in the wet, salt-exposed environment inside a boat's helm housing. Replacing a worn, cracked, or leaking travel tube restores proper cable travel and helm feel without needing to replace the entire steering helm assembly. The tube is lightweight and ships as a single component ready to install in place of the original spent travel tube.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e SeaStar Solutions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e SA35680P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spent Travel Tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Helm Models:\u003c\/strong\u003e Big-T, Safe-T \"TS\", Safe-T Quick Connect (QC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yellow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Steering Parts and Accessories\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFits SeaStar Solutions Big-T, Safe-T \"TS\", and Safe-T Quick Connect (QC) rotary steering helm models that use a plastic travel tube with plastic nuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo OEM cross-reference numbers are specified for this part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the SeaStar Solutions SA35680P used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e SA35680P is a spent travel tube that houses the used portion of the steering cable inside a SeaStar Solutions rotary steering helm as the wheel turns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich helm models is SA35680P compatible with?\u003c\/strong\u003e SA35680P fits SeaStar Solutions Big-T, Safe-T \"TS\", and Safe-T Quick Connect (QC) rotary steering helm models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs SA35680P a drop-in replacement for the original tube?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, SA35680P is designed as a drop-in replacement for the original plastic travel tube on helms that use plastic tubes with plastic nuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the SA35680P travel tube made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SA35680P travel tube is made from plastic, finished in yellow, and built to resist corrosion in a marine environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the SA35680P travel tube weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SA35680P spent travel tube weighs 0.1 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes SA35680P work with NFB (No Feed Back) helms?\u003c\/strong\u003e SeaStar Solutions recommends NFB helms for outboard applications since they lock out steering loads caused by propeller torque, but SA35680P itself is the spent travel tube component used within the compatible rotary helm models rather than the NFB mechanism itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color is the SA35680P tube?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SA35680P spent travel tube is yellow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill SA35680P fit a helm with metal nuts instead of plastic nuts?\u003c\/strong\u003e SA35680P is intended for replacement of plastic tubes with plastic nuts on SeaStar Solutions rotary steering helms, so it is made for the plastic-nut style helm configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included when ordering part SA35680P?\u003c\/strong\u003e Ordering SA35680P includes one spent travel tube for installation in a compatible SeaStar Solutions rotary steering helm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs SA35680P a genuine SeaStar Solutions part?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, SA35680P is the SeaStar Solutions part number for this spent travel tube, and it is a patented SeaStar Solutions component used as a drop-in replacement for Safe-T systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan SA35680P be used on a Safe-T Twin Rotary Steering Head?\u003c\/strong\u003e SA35680P is used on SeaStar Solutions Big-T, Safe-T \"TS\", and Safe-T Quick Connect (QC) rotary steering helm models.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SeaStar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48989351641307,"sku":"TEL-SA35680P","price":10.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/tel-sa35680p_large__58420.1729610415.500.750.jpg?v=1785188018","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/seastar-sa35680p-spent-travel-tube-for-safe-t-qc-safe-t-ts-and-big-t-rotary-steering-helms","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
