This kit uses a collet and hitch pin arrangement to secure the QC cable directly to the helm, replacing the older thread-on nut connection method found on Safe-T TS helms. A conical plastic nut is included to hold the spent travel tube in place, and the kit's spent travel tube is the quick connect style rather than the older threaded design -- both styles use the same cable, so the connection hardware is what differs between the two systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is intended for boat owners and installers upgrading or replacing steering cable components on a Safe-T QC helm, giving a secure, positive connection between the cable and helm without threading the nut on by hand. Because the QC and TS (old style) connection hardware are not interchangeable, confirm your helm uses the quick connect style before ordering.\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 SS13721\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit Series:\u003c\/strong\u003e SS137XX (Safe-T QC Single Cable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Steering Cables and Kits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Quick connect (QC) - collet and hitch pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpent Travel Tube:\u003c\/strong\u003e Quick connect style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Conical plastic nut (holds spent travel tube)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17.12 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 131957130349\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for SeaStar Safe-T QC helm systems using the quick connect spent travel tube; not for old style Safe-T TS helms with a threaded spent travel tube.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo OEM cross-reference numbers are listed for this part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the SeaStar SS13721 used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SS13721 is a quick connect (QC) style steering cable kit component, used to secure a QC steering cable to a SeaStar Safe-T QC helm using a collet and hitch pin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the SS13721 fit old style Safe-T TS helms?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The SS13721 is designed for the quick connect (QC) spent travel tube style; old style Safe-T TS helms use a threaded spent travel tube and a large thread-on nut instead of the collet and hitch pin connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat kit series does SS13721 belong to?\u003c\/strong\u003e SS13721 belongs to the SS137XX kit series, which is the Safe-T QC Single Cable kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the cable attach to the helm on this kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e A collet and hitch pin secure the QC cable to the helm, and a conical plastic nut holds the spent travel tube in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the same cable be used with both the old style and quick connect spent travel tubes?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, both the old style threaded spent travel tube and the quick connect spent travel tube used in the SS13721 kit work with the same cable; only the tube and connection hardware differ.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the SS13721 steering kit weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e 17.12 pounds is the weight of the SeaStar SS13721 steering kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the nut on the SS13721 made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e The nut that holds the spent travel tube on the SS13721 is a conical plastic nut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre there OEM cross-reference numbers for the SS13721?\u003c\/strong\u003e No OEM replacement or cross-reference numbers are listed for the SeaStar SS13721.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a spent travel tube on a steering cable kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e On the SS13721, the spent travel tube is the quick connect style component that works with the collet and hitch pin connection at the helm, as opposed to the threaded tube used on old style Safe-T TS helms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the SS13721 sold as a complete kit or individual components?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SS13721 is part of the SS137XX Safe-T QC Single Cable kit, which packages the QC connection hardware together, unlike the old style Safe-T TS system which is sold as separate components.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SeaStar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48989365534939,"sku":"TEL-SS13721","price":271.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/i_f949c3ea-dafa-4fd9-9ff3-97269278dd1f.jpg?v=1785348999","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/seastar-ss13721-safe-t-qc-single-cable-rotary-steering-kit-with-quick-connect-helm","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
