It is designed as the direct replacement for 1996-Current SeaStar Solutions\/original Teleflex \"The Rack\" (Back Mount) steering cable with a black cable cover, as installed by the original boat manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cable uses a tightly controlled core-to-conduit fit to deliver precise, consistent steering feel. Its outer jacket is constructed of HDPE (high density polyethylene), a material chosen for its abrasion resistance and high resistance to water penetration, while the cable output ends are made of stainless steel for corrosion resistance and long-term reliability. The SSC13420 is designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA and is tested for marine environmental conditions, meeting or exceeding NMMA, ISO, IMCI, and ABYC steering standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cable is intended for single-station use only and is compatible with SH5210P, SH5230P (NFB), SH91610P, and SH91630P (NFB) helms, and is also supplied as the steering cable in SeaStar Complete Back Mount Rack System Kits SS141 and SS151. It will not replace 1984-1996 SeaStar Solutions\/original Teleflex \"The Rack\" (Rack \u0026amp; Pinion) steering cable; that earlier system requires the SSC124XX direct replacement cable instead. Before ordering, verify this is the correct cable length for your application, as steering cables of this type are special-order and non-returnable.\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 SSC13420\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20' Backmount Rack Single Cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteering System 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\u003eOutput End Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\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\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 x 20 x 28 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.93 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e U-Bolt\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\u003eCompliance Standards:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meets or exceeds NMMA, ISO, IMCI, and ABYC standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made, designed, and assembled in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturer defects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeaStar Solutions\/Teleflex Back Mount Rack Steering System, 1996-Current (black cable cover)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelms: SH5210P, SH5230P (NFB), SH91610P, SH91630P (NFB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteering cable used in SeaStar Complete Back Mount Rack System Kits SS141 and SS151\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the SeaStar SSC13420 steering cable used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SSC13420 is a 20-foot rack and pinion steering cable for SeaStar Back Mount Rack steering systems, used to connect the helm to the outboard or sterndrive steering ram on single-station boats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the SSC13420 fit a 1985 boat with a SeaStar rack and pinion system?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The SSC13420 replaces 1996-Current Back Mount Rack steering cables with a black cable cover.
