Dometic Xtreme Rack Cable SSCX15412, 12 Foot Marine Rack and Pinion Steering Cable

The Dometic Xtreme Rack Cable (SSCX15412) is a 12 foot rack and pinion steering cable built for boats using a rack and pinion steering system. It transmits helm input directly to the outboard or sterndrive steering rack, giving the boat operator precise, consistent control at the helm. This cable is part of the Dometic Xtreme Rack Cable product line and is sized specifically at 12 feet to match applications calling for that cable length.

Steering cables of this type are a wear item on any rack and pinion steering setup, and replacing a worn or corroded cable with the correct length is essential for maintaining safe, responsive steering. The SSCX15412 ships as a single cable assembly ready for installation into a compatible rack and pinion steering system.
