It is part of the CCX189XX Mercury Gen II type (premium) cable line and is built as a drop-in replacement that uses the existing connection components at the control head and engine end, so no modification is needed at installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeaStar's Xtreme Technology uses a patented splined core: ridges on the core provide a close fit with the cable's inner liner, allowing smooth movement with minimal lost motion. The cable carries a 0.34 inch super tough HDPE 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. Stainless steel terminals and brass fittings add corrosion protection, and the HDPE liner is lubricated for life at the factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA key advantage of the Xtreme design is a 4 inch minimum bend radius, versus an 8 inch minimum bend radius for standard control cables, which makes it well suited to foot throttle applications on performance and bass boats, as well as complex or long cable runs where routing space is tight. The cable is made in the U.S.A. And is designed to fit Mariner\/Mercury\/MerCruiser and other engines using Mercury 2003-date 4000 series controls. Before ordering, confirm this 12-foot length is correct for your application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e SeaStar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e CCX18912\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Family:\u003c\/strong\u003e CCX189XX (Mercury Gen II type, premium)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Bend Radius:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJacket Thickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.34 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJacket Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLay Wire Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.033 inches, oil tempered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTerminals:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFittings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCore Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Splined, coated core element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.9 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in the U.S.A.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMariner\/Mercury\/MerCruiser and other engines using Mercury 2003-date 4000 series controls\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat length is the SeaStar CCX18912 control cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CCX18912 is 12 feet long.
