SeaStar CCX63016 Xtreme 3600 Mercury Control Cable, 16 Feet, 10-32 Threaded End
The SeaStar CCX63016 is a 16-foot Xtreme control cable built for Mercury 3600-type throttle and shift applications. It has a 10-32 threaded terminal at the control end and a Mercury type engine end connection, and it is a drop-in replacement cable that does not require the CA27319 connection kit at the engine end. SeaStar's Xtreme Technology core uses a patented splined core design, with ridges that create a close fit with the cable's inner liner for smooth movement and minimal lost motion. The cable gives a 4 inch minimum bend radius, compared to an 8 inch minimum bend radius on standard control cables, which makes it well suited to tight or complex routing on performance and bass boats, including foot throttle setups.
Construction includes a 0.34 inch Super Tough HDPE outer jacket that resists abrasion and withstands UV, salt water, chemicals, gasoline, and oil, along with 0.033 inch oil tempered lay wires for strength and performance. The core wires are covered in stainless or nylon with moisture protective seals for added corrosion resistance, and the liner is a long wearing HDPE liner that is lubed for life. This cable is designed for Mercury products (1965-date) and Force products (1993-date) that use controls accepting 10-32 threaded ends, or most aftermarket controls, paired with a Mercury style engine end connection. It is Made in the U.S.A., exceeds ABYC safety standards, and is type certified to ISO/IMCI and NMMA requirements, and is backed by a two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturing defects.
