SeaStar Xtreme Gen II Control Cable CCX18924, 24 Feet, for Mercury 4000 Series Controls (2003-Date)

The SeaStar Xtreme Gen II Control Cable, CCX18924, is a 24 foot OEM direct-replacement type control cable engineered for Mariner, Mercury, and MerCruiser engines and other engines using Mercury 2003-date 4000 Series Controls. Built with SeaStar's Xtreme Technology, it features a patented splined core whose ridges create a close fit with the cable's inner liner, allowing smooth movement with minimal lost motion. The cable is designed as a drop-in replacement for original equipment cables and uses the existing connection components, so installation follows the same hookup as the factory cable it replaces.

Xtreme cables carry a 4 inch minimum bend radius, half the 8 inch minimum bend radius of standard control cables, making this cable well suited to complex or long cable runs and to foot throttle applications on performance and bass boats. The 0.34 inch Super Tough HDPE jacket resists abrasion and withstands UV exposure, salt water, chemicals, gasoline, and oil. Internally, 0.033 inch oil tempered lay wires provide strength and performance, while stainless steel terminals and brass fittings add corrosion protection. The HDPE liner is ultra smooth and lubricated for life at the factory. This cable exceeds engine manufacturer specifications and is Made in the U.S.A.
