It uses a 3.75 inch (95 mm) stroke to actuate smooth, accurate throttle and gear-shift movement, and is built with 18 laywire conduit construction for consistent performance and resistance to binding over the length of the run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs part of the C5 cable series, this cable is compatible with Uflex B310 series control heads, which can be mounted horizontally or vertically on either the port or starboard side of the boat and used on outboard, sterndrive, and inboard applications. When connecting a C5 cable to a B310 control head, the Uflex K35 connection kit is required to complete the installation. Uflex is a longstanding manufacturer of steering and control systems for the marine industry, with products used as original equipment across many major boat brands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Uflex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e C5X14\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Series:\u003c\/strong\u003e C5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStroke:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.75 inches (95 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConduit:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 laywire conduit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Engines:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mercury, Mercruiser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Kit Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Requires K35 connection kit for use with B310 control heads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.8 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 702755012160\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat length is the Uflex C5X14 control cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Uflex C5X14 is 14 feet long, as indicated by the X14 designation in its part number.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat engines is the C5X14 designed for?\u003c\/strong\u003e This cable is built for Mercury and Mercruiser engine applications and is designed as a drop-in replacement for the factory control cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the stroke measurement on this control cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Uflex C5X14 has a 3.75 inch (95 mm) stroke, which determines how far the cable travels to actuate throttle or shift movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the C5X14 work with a Uflex B310 control head?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the C5X14 belongs to the C5 cable series, which is compatible with Uflex B310 series control heads when the Uflex K35 connection kit is added.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need any extra parts to connect this cable to a B310 control?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, C5 series cables such as the C5X14 require the Uflex K35 connection kit to connect to a B310 control head.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the conduit construction of the C5X14?\u003c\/strong\u003e The C5X14 is built with 18 laywire conduit construction for consistent, durable cable operation along its length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the C5X14 control cable weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Uflex C5X14 weighs 1.8 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the C5X14 a genuine Uflex part?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the C5X14 is a genuine Uflex engine control cable, not a generic aftermarket substitute.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this cable be used for both throttle and shift control?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, engine control cables like the C5X14 are used to actuate throttle and shift functions between the control head and the engine linkage on Mercury and Mercruiser setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the C5X14 suitable for outboard, sterndrive, or inboard boats?\u003c\/strong\u003e The C5 cable series that includes the C5X14 is used with Uflex B310 control heads, which support outboard, sterndrive, and inboard applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included with the C5X14 cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Uflex C5X14 control cable is supplied as the cable assembly itself; the K35 connection kit needed for B310 control head installation is a separate item.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Uflex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991090049243,"sku":"UFX-C5X14","price":43.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/31cdRYDRUyL_8ed5d48b-9013-4e76-8ce3-b4c2213aed40.jpg?v=1784491249","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/uflex-c5x14-c5-engine-control-cable-14-ft-for-mercury-mercruiser-33c-universal-3-75-stroke","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
