SeaStar Xtreme Control Cable CCX20518, 18 Feet, for 1979-Date BRP/OMC/Johnson/Evinrude/Gale Engines with BRP/OMC Controls

The SeaStar CCX20518 is an 18 foot Xtreme series engine control cable built as a drop-in replacement that uses the existing connection components on the boat, so no new control head or engine-end hardware is required. It is designed for 1979-date BRP/OMC/Johnson/Evinrude/Gale engines that use BRP/OMC controls, making it a straightforward swap for the original equipment cable on these applications.

The cable's XTREME Technology centers on a patented splined core: ridges on the core give a close fit with the cable's inner liner, allowing smooth movement with minimal lost motion at the helm. It carries a 4 inch minimum bend radius, compared with an 8 inch minimum bend radius on 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 routing space is tight.

Construction includes a 0.34 inch super tough HDPE jacket that resists abrasion and stands up to UV exposure, salt water, chemicals, gasoline and oil, along with 0.033 inch oil tempered lay wires for strength. Stainless steel terminals and brass fittings add corrosion protection, and the cable is lubricated for life at the factory, so no field re-lubrication is needed. The CCX20518 is made in the U.S.A. And is built to exceed engine manufacturer specifications while meeting ABYC safety standards and ISO/IMCI/NMMA certification requirements.
