It uses the existing connection components at the control head and engine, so installation follows the same routing and hookup as the original cable it replaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eXtreme Control Cable technology is built around a patented splined core: ridges on the core give a close fit with the cable's inner liner, allowing smooth, low-friction movement with minimal lost motion at the helm. This construction also delivers a 4 inch minimum bend radius, compared with an 8 inch minimum bend radius on standard-type control cables, making the CCX18908 well suited to foot throttle applications on performance and bass boats, and to complex or long cable runs where a standard cable cannot be routed as tightly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cable is protected by a 0.34 inch Super Tough HDPE jacket that resists abrasion and withstands UV, salt water, chemicals, gasoline and oil, over 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 is made in the U.S.A. And is backed by a two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturing defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e
