Uflex MACH5 Mercury-Style Engine Control Cable, 16 Foot - MACH5X16

The Uflex MACH5X16 is a 16 foot Mercury-style engine control cable from the Uflex MACH Series, engineered for smooth, precise shift and throttle movement even in complex cable routing installations. Built on Uflex's patented high-performance MACH cable design, it uses an innovative core construction that maximizes efficiency and minimizes lost motion, paired with a conduit design that delivers an exceptionally high level of flexibility. This combination allows the cable to hold tight bend radii during installation without sacrificing responsiveness at the helm.

The MACH5 configuration is built to the Mercury style (comparable to a C5-type cable), making it a direct fit for control systems that call for that cable style. It is suitable for use across outboard, inboard, and sterndrive engine applications. The cable is constructed with a plastic housing/core system for durability in a marine environment, and is supplied as a single 16 foot unit ready for installation into compatible Mercury-style control systems.
