SeaStar Xtreme Side Mount Control CHX8051P, Chrome, with Engine Cut Off Switch and Trim Switch
The SeaStar Xtreme Side Mount Control, part number CHX8051P, is a chrome-finished single-engine control designed to mount at the side of the helm for direct throttle and shift command. It integrates a built-in engine cut off switch and a trim switch into the control head, letting the operator manage throttle, shift, engine kill, and trim from one console-mounted unit rather than running separate switches. The control uses push-button style switching for its integrated functions, with blade-type connectors and terminals for wiring into the boat's engine and trim circuitry. Its switch contacts are normally-open with a 1-way circuit and a single position, and the contact material is stainless steel for corrosion resistance in a marine environment. The housing carries an IP54 ingress protection rating, giving it a degree of resistance to splash and dust exposure typical of an open helm station. The chrome finish provides a polished, corrosion-resistant appearance that matches other chrome helm hardware. Overall included components are the Xtreme Side Mount Control in chrome with the engine cut off switch and trim switch built in, sized at 18.74 x 7.01 x 7.99 inches and weighing 6.44 pounds. This control is intended as a side-mount helm station solution for boaters who want engine cut off and trim functions consolidated with primary throttle and shift control.
