SeaStar SSC6222 Quick Connect Rotary Steering Cable, 22 Feet, Fits SH5150P, SH4910P, SH4920P and Other Single-Station Helms

The SeaStar SSC6222 is a 22-foot Quick Connect (QC) rotary steering cable built as a replacement for the original steering system installed by the boat manufacturer on single-station boats. It uses a simple rotary quick-connect snap-in connection at the helm end for straightforward installation, and the cable output end is constructed of stainless steel for corrosion resistance and long-term durability. The outer jacket is made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), an abrasion-resistant material that provides strong resistance to water penetration, while a tightly controlled core-to-conduit fit delivers precise, consistent steering feel. A trapped nut on the cable end stays in place during routing, which simplifies the install and helps keep the connection secure.

The SSC6222 is designed for single-station use only and is intended as a replacement cable for an existing rotary steering system rather than a new system design. It works with a range of SeaStar and Safe-T helms, including No-Feedback (NFB) helms, which lock out steering loads caused by propeller torque to reduce driver fatigue compared to a standard rotary helm. The cable meets or exceeds ISO, IMCI, NMMA, and ABYC marine steering standards and is made, designed, and assembled in the USA. It is backed by a two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturer defects.
