It is built for Mercury, MerCruiser, Mariner and most Force engines paired with Mercury controls, and works with SeaStar Solutions Osprey and SL-3 Series Controls as well. The XTREME design uses a patented splined core with ridges that keep a close fit against the cable's inner liner, giving smooth, low-friction movement with minimal lost motion, which is why it is often chosen for complex or long cable runs, or simply for a smoother throttle and shift feel on performance and bass boats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstruction includes a 0.34-inch super tough HDPE jacket that resists abrasion, UV, salt water, chemicals, gasoline and oil, along with 0.033-inch oil tempered lay wires for strength and performance. Stainless steel terminals and brass fittings add corrosion protection, and the HDPE liner is lubricated for life at the factory. The cable has a 4-inch minimum bend radius, half that of a standard control cable, making routing easier in tight engine compartments. It exceeds engine manufacturer specifications and is type certified to ISO\/IMCI and NMMA requirements while meeting ABYC safety standards.

for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CCX17917 is a 17-foot XTREME control cable used to connect a boat's throttle and shift controls to the engine, replacing a Mercury 600A style control cable on Mercury, MerCruiser, Mariner and most Force engines with Mercury controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the CCX17917 fit my engine?\u003c\/strong\u003e This cable fits Mercury, MerCruiser and Mariner engines (1965-date) with Mercury controls, Force engines (1993-date) with Mercury controls, and SeaStar Solutions Osprey and SL-3 Series Controls to those same engine families.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is the CCX17917 cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CCX17917 measures 17 feet, so confirm the existing cable run length on the boat before ordering since control cables are length-specific.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the CCX17917 use the existing connection hardware?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the CCX17917 is a drop-in replacement engineered to use the existing connection components already installed at the control head and engine, matching the Mercury 600A style cable it replaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes the XTREME cable different from a standard control cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e SeaStar's XTREME technology gives the CCX17917 a 4-inch minimum bend radius versus 8 inches for a standard cable, plus a patented splined core for smoother movement with less lost motion, which matters most on complex or long cable runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the jacket made of on this cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CCX17917 uses a 0.34-inch Super Tough HDPE jacket that resists abrasion and withstands UV, salt water, chemicals, gasoline and oil exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the CCX17917 pre-lubricated?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the CCX17917's HDPE liner is lubricated for life at the factory, so no additional lubrication is needed at installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the core wires made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CCX17917 uses 0.033-inch oil tempered lay wires for strength and performance, paired with a splined, coated core element for smooth operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the CCX17917 corrosion resistant?\u003c\/strong\u003e The cable's stainless steel terminals and brass fittings, along with moisture protective seals on the core wires, provide corrosion protection for marine use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the CCX17917 weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SeaStar CCX17917 control cable weighs 2.44 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere is the CCX17917 manufactured?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CCX17917 control cable is made in the U.S.A.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the CCX17917 meet marine safety standards?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the CCX17917 exceeds engine manufacturer specifications and is type certified to ISO\/IMCI and NMMA requirements while meeting ABYC safety standards.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SeaStar","offers":[{"title":"Default
