Designed as part of Uflex's Universal 3300 C8 control cable line, it delivers a 3.4 inch (87 mm) stroke and is engineered to accept 33C style connections, making it a common replacement choice across a wide range of engine control setups. The cable's construction uses a full complement of lay wires, a winding technique that improves push-pull efficiency and adds long-term durability under repeated shifting and throttle cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C8X16 is a direct replacement option for Yamaha, Suzuki, Honda, and other outboard engines. It is also applicable to Mercury Gen I installations when paired with the optional K56 connection kit, and to post 1979 Johnson\/Evinrude engines when paired with the optional K57 connection kit. As a universal control cable, it is intended for boat owners and marine technicians replacing worn or stiff throttle and shift cables where a 16 foot, 3.4 inch stroke, 33C-compatible cable is required.\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 C8X16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Engine Control Cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStroke:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.4 inches (87 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Universal 3300 series, C8;
