SeaStar CCX20525 Control Cable, 25 Feet, Mercury Style Engine End for Mercury (1965-date) and Force (1993-date) Engines

The SeaStar CCX20525 is a 25-foot XTREME control cable built with a Mercury style engine end connection, designed for Mercury products (1965-date) and Force (1993-date) engines using controls that accept 10-32 threaded ends, or most aftermarket controls. It uses SeaStar's XTREME Technology, built around a patented splined core: ridges on the core create a close fit with the cable's inner liner, allowing smooth movement with minimal lost motion. The XTREME design gives the cable a 4 inch minimum bend radius, compared to an 8 inch minimum bend radius on standard control cables, making it well suited to complex or long cable runs, tight engine compartments, and foot throttle setups on performance and bass boats.

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 add corrosion protection, and the HDPE liner is lubricated for life at the factory. The cable is a drop-in replacement engineered to use existing connection components, and it exceeds engine manufacturer specifications. It is made in the U.S.A. And is backed by a two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturing defects.
