SeaStar XTREME Control Cable CCX17911, 11-Foot, Mercury 600A Style Replacement for Mercury/MerCruiser/Mariner/Force Engines
The SeaStar CCX17911 is an 11-foot XTREME Control Cable engineered as a drop-in replacement for the Mercury 600A style control cable, using the existing connection components on the engine and control head so no adapters are required. It is built for Mercury, MerCruiser, and Mariner outboard and sterndrive engines (1965-date) that use Mercury controls with 10-32 threaded ends, for 1993-date Force (US Marine) engines with Force/US Marine/Mercury controls, and for Mariner engines with Mercury/Mariner controls, with the exception of pre-1993 40 HP and lower Mariner models.
At the core of the cable is a patented splined core element that keeps a close fit with the cable's inner liner, giving smooth movement with minimal lost motion at the helm. The core uses 0.033-inch oil-tempered lay wires for strength, wrapped in a 0.34-inch super tough high-density polyethylene (HDPE) jacket that resists abrasion and stands up to UV exposure, salt water, chemicals, gasoline, and oil. XTREME construction gives the cable a 4-inch minimum bend radius, compared to an 8-inch minimum bend radius on standard control cables, making it suited to complex or long cable runs and tight engine compartments. Stainless steel terminals and brass fittings add corrosion protection, and the liner is lubricated for life at the factory. The cable is made in the U.S.A. And is backed by a two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturing defects.

Frequently Asked Questions
What engines does the SeaStar CCX17911 control cable fit? The CCX17911 fits Mercury, MerCruiser, and Mariner engines from 1965-date using Mercury controls with 10-32 threaded ends, Force (US Marine) engines from 1993-date with Force/US Marine/Mercury controls, and Mariner engines with Mercury/Mariner controls, except pre-1993 models of 40 HP and lower.
Is the CCX17911 a direct replacement for the factory Mercury cable? Yes, this SeaStar XTREME cable is a drop-in replacement for the Mercury 600A style control cable and uses the existing connection components, so no adapters or modified hardware are needed.
How long is the CCX17911 control cable? The CCX17911 measures 11 feet in length.
What is the minimum bend radius of this cable? The CCX17911 has a 4-inch minimum bend radius, compared to an 8-inch minimum bend radius on standard control cables, which makes it a better fit for tight or complex cable runs.
What material is the outer jacket made of? A 0.34-inch super tough HDPE (high-density polyethylene) jacket covers the CCX17911, resisting abrasion, UV exposure, salt water, chemicals, gasoline, and oil.
Does the CCX17911 fit pre-1993 Mariner outboards under 40 HP? No, the CCX17911 excludes pre-1993 Mariner models of 40 HP and lower; all other Mariner engines with Mercury/Mariner controls are covered.
How much does the CCX17911 weigh? The CCX17911 control cable weighs 1.78 pounds.
What is inside the CCX17911 beyond the outer jacket? Under the HDPE jacket, the CCX17911 uses 0.033-inch oil-tempered lay wires around a splined core element, with stainless steel terminals and brass fittings for corrosion protection.
Is the CCX17911 pre-lubricated? Yes, the CCX17911 is lubricated for life at the factory, so no additional lubrication is needed at installation.
Where is the CCX17911 control cable manufactured? The CCX17911 is made in the U.S.A.
What warranty comes with the CCX17911? SeaStar backs the CCX17911 with a two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturing defects.
Does the CCX17911 meet marine industry standards? Yes, the CCX17911 exceeds engine manufacturer specifications and is type certified to ABYC, ISO/IMCI, and NMMA requirements.
