SeaStar CCX20524 XTREME Control Cable, 24 Feet, 10-32 Threaded End, Mercury (1965-Date) and Force (1993-Date)

The SeaStar CCX20524 is a 24-foot XTREME control cable built for boats using controls that accept 10-32 threaded ends or most aftermarket control heads, with a Mercury-style engine end connection for Mercury (1965-date) and Force (1993-date) engines. It uses SeaStar's patented splined core, where ridges on the core create a close fit with the cable's inner liner for easy movement and minimal lost motion. This XTREME design gives the cable a 4 inch minimum bend radius, half the 8 inch minimum required by standard-duty control cables, making it well suited to complex routing, long cable runs, or foot-throttle setups on performance and bass boats.

The cable is protected by a 0.34 inch thick HDPE jacket that resists abrasion and stands up to UV exposure, salt water, chemicals, gasoline, and oil. Inside, 0.033 inch oil-tempered lay wires provide strength and consistent performance, while stainless steel terminals and brass fittings add corrosion resistance at the connection points. The core is factory-lubricated for life and the liner is designed for long-term smooth operation. This is a drop-in replacement type cable that uses the existing connection components at the control and engine ends, and it is made in the U.S.A.
