SeaStar CCX17925 XTREME Control Cable, 25 Feet, Mercury 600A Type Replacement for Mercury/Mariner/MerCruiser/Force

The SeaStar CCX17925 is a 25-foot XTREME control cable engineered as a drop-in replacement for the Mercury 600A style control cable, using the boat's existing connection components. It is built for Mercury, MerCruiser, Mariner, and most Force outboard and sterndrive engines running Mercury controls, and is also compatible with SeaStar Osprey and SL-3 Series controls. The XTREME line is designed for complex or long cable runs, or simply for a smoother throttle and shift feel, and is a common upgrade on performance and bass boats.

At the core of the CCX17925 is SeaStar's patented splined core: ridges on the core create a close fit with the cable's inner liner, allowing smooth movement with minimal lost motion. The cable carries 0.033-inch oil tempered lay wires for strength, stainless or nylon covered core wires with moisture-protective seals, and stainless steel terminals with brass fittings for corrosion resistance. A 0.34-inch super tough HDPE jacket resists abrasion and withstands UV, salt water, chemicals, gasoline, and oil, and the cable is lubricated for life at the factory so no re-greasing is needed at install. Its XTREME construction gives it a 4-inch minimum bend radius, versus an 8-inch minimum for standard control cables, making it easier to route through tight or long engine bay runs.

The CCX17925 fits Mercury, Mariner, and MerCruiser engines from 1965-date and Force engines from 1993-date when used with Mercury controls, and fits Mariner engines with Mercury/Mariner controls except pre-1993 models of 40 HP and under. Confirm cable length against your existing control cable before ordering, since length must match the application.
