Sierra 18-1282 Lanyard and Clip, Replaces OMC 398602, Fits Tiller Steer Models

The Sierra 18-1282 Lanyard and Clip is a safety lanyard designed for tiller steer outboard models, engineered to meet or exceed the quality of the original equipment part it replaces. The lanyard attaches to the engine's kill switch and to the operator, so that if the operator moves away from the helm or is thrown from the boat, the engine shuts off automatically, helping prevent a runaway boat situation. This is a standard safety accessory for tiller steer outboards and is a direct equivalent for the OMC 398602 lanyard.

Sierra supplies OEM engine manufacturers and boat builders with parts engineered for the demands of high horsepower engines and the harsh marine environment, and the 18-1282 lanyard and clip is built to that same standard. It ships as a single lanyard and clip unit, ready to install on compatible tiller steer outboard kill switches.
