Uflex FOURTECH20 ZTF Mach Rotary Steering System, 20 Foot Cable
The Uflex FOURTECH20 ZTF is a complete rotary steering system built around a 20 foot steering cable, designed to give boat owners a durable, ready-to-install replacement or upgrade for their helm-to-outboard or helm-to-sterndrive steering connection. As a Mach-series rotary system, it uses the proven rotary cable design that converts helm wheel rotation into precise, responsive movement at the outboard or drive unit, giving consistent steering feel with minimal play. The 20 foot length makes it suited to boats where the helm station is positioned a longer run from the engine or transom, and the system is supplied as a unit so the cable is matched to the rest of the rotary steering components rather than being sold as a standalone replacement cable. Rotary steering systems of this type are valued for their simple mechanical operation, low maintenance compared to hydraulic steering, and straightforward routing along the hull. This system falls under steering cables and kits, making it a direct fit for boat owners maintaining or upgrading an existing rotary helm setup rather than converting to hydraulic steering. At 17.1 pounds, it reflects the full cable and system weight as supplied.
