It connects the helm to the outboard engine, translating steering wheel input into precise directional control at the motor. The cable uses a tightly controlled core-to-conduit fit that delivers accurate, consistent steering feel, and its outer jacket is made from HDPE (high density polyethylene), a material chosen for its abrasion resistance and strong resistance to water penetration in a marine environment. The cable output ends are constructed of stainless steel for corrosion resistance and long-term reliability in salt or fresh water use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cable is designed as a replacement for the 1996-to-current SeaStar Solutions\/Original Teleflex \"The Rack\" (Back Mount) Steering Cable and is compatible with Back Mount Rack helms SH5210P, SH5230P (NFB), SH91610P, and SH91630P (NFB). It is also used as the steering cable contained in Complete Back Mount Rack System Kits SS141 and SS151. The SSC13418 is intended for single station applications only and is meant to replace the original steering cable as installed by the boat manufacturer. It meets or exceeds NMMA, ISO, IMCI, and ABYC marine steering standards and is backed by a two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturer defects.\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 SSC13418\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.32 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter Jacket Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e HDPE (high density polyethylene)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Output Ends Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rack and Pinion, Back Mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStation Configuration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Station\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Helms:\u003c\/strong\u003e SH5210P, SH5230P (NFB), SH91610P, SH91630P (NFB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Kits:\u003c\/strong\u003e SS141, SS151\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e NMMA, ISO, IMCI, ABYC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturer defects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 731957082787\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack Mount Rack steering helms SH5210P, SH5230P (NFB), SH91610P, and SH91630P (NFB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete Back Mount Rack System Kits SS141 and SS151\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle station applications only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e1996-Current SeaStar Solutions\/Original Teleflex \"The Rack\" (Back Mount) Steering Cable\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the SeaStar SSC13418 steering cable used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SSC13418 is an 18-foot rack and pinion steering cable that connects a Back Mount Rack helm to the outboard engine on a single station boat, transmitting steering wheel input to the motor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the SSC13418 fit any Back Mount Rack helm?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SSC13418 is compatible with Back Mount Rack helms SH5210P, SH5230P (NFB), SH91610P, and SH91630P (NFB), and is also the cable included in Complete Back Mount Rack System Kits SS141 and SS151.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is this steering cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e This cable measures 18 feet, matching the length designation in the SSC13418 part number.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the SSC13418 replace?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is designed to replace the 1996-to-current SeaStar Solutions\/Original Teleflex \"The Rack\" (Back Mount) Steering Cable as originally installed by the boat manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this cable be used on a dual station boat?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the SSC13418 is built for single station use only;
