Uflex M66X10 Rotary Replacement Steering Cable, 10 Feet, Replaces SSC6200, SSC6300, 290
The Uflex M66X10 is a 10-foot rotary replacement steering cable designed to fit universal quick-connect (QC) rotary steering systems. As part of the Uflex M66 Universal Rotary Steering Cable line, it is engineered for smooth, consistent steering feel and long service life, with solid stainless steel output fittings that resist corrosion and hold up to repeated use better than standard fittings. The cable is built as a direct drop-in replacement, letting boat owners swap out a worn or failing steering cable without sourcing adapters or modifying the existing helm setup.
The M66X10 directly replaces SSC6200, SSC6300, and 290 series rotary steering cables, making it a straightforward upgrade path for owners of boats originally equipped with those cables. Some dual-cable helm systems, such as the T82FC, require two M66 cables working together, so buyers with those systems should order two units. At 10 feet in length and 5.9 pounds, the M66X10 is sized for mid-length steering runs typical of single-engine outboard and sterndrive boats using rotary (not rack-and-pinion) steering.
