Uflex C5X11 Engine Control Cable for Mercury and Mercruiser, 11 Foot, 3.75 Inch Stroke
The Uflex C5X11 is an 11 foot engine control cable built for Mercury and Mercruiser applications. It uses an 18 laywire conduit construction and delivers a 3.75 inch (95 mm) stroke, making it suitable as a drop-in replacement in Mercury and Mercruiser control setups. As part of Uflex's C5 cable line, it is designed to connect to compatible engine control systems, giving boat owners a reliable way to replace a worn or damaged shift and throttle cable without altering the rest of the control system. The cable's laywire conduit design supports smooth, consistent motion transfer from the control head to the engine, which is important for both accurate throttle response and clean gear engagement. Uflex is a manufacturer of steering and control systems used across a wide range of boat brands, and the C5 series cable is one of its standard control cable offerings for outboard and sterndrive engines. Because control cables are sized to the specific run length needed on a boat, the 11 foot length of the C5X11 should be matched against the length of the cable being replaced before ordering. This cable is intended for use with compatible Mercury and Mercruiser control systems and should be paired with the correct connection hardware for the specific control head in use.
