SeaStar Xtreme Control Cable CCX18913, 13 Feet, for Mercury 4000 Series Controls (2003-date)
The SeaStar CCX18913 is a 13-foot Xtreme control cable engineered as a drop-in replacement for Mariner, Mercury, and MerCruiser engines (and other engines) using Mercury 2003-date 4000 Series Controls. 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.
SeaStar's Xtreme Technology core is built around a patented splined core: ridges on the core keep a close fit with the cable's inner liner, allowing smooth, low-friction movement with minimal lost motion. The cable carries 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, and to complex or long cable runs where a standard cable would bind or require a shallower bend.
Construction includes 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 provide corrosion protection, and the cable is lubricated for life at the factory. It is made in the U.S.A. Before ordering, confirm 13 feet is the correct cable length for your control run.
