It uses a simple rotary quick connect snap-in connection, so installation is fast and does not require special tools. The cable's outer jacket is made from HDPE (high-density polyethylene), a material chosen for its resistance to abrasion and water penetration, while the cable output end is constructed of stainless steel for corrosion resistance and long-term durability. A trapped nut on the cable end holds it in place during routing, making installation easier and more secure. The core-to-conduit fit is tightly controlled to deliver precise, consistent steering feel. The SSC6217 is designed as a direct-fit replacement cable for a range of SeaStar helms, and with the SA27620P adapter it can also be used to update older Safe-T and Big-T helm systems. It is intended only as a replacement for the original steering system as installed by the boat manufacturer. The cable is made, designed, and assembled in the USA and meets or exceeds ABYC, ISO, IMCI, and NMMA marine steering standards. It 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
