Teleflex HA54712 Liquid Tie Bar Alignment Valve for Twin Outboard Hydraulic Steering

The Teleflex HA54712 (Dometic HA5471-2) Liquid Tie Bar Alignment Valve is a specialized hydraulic steering component designed for boats with twin outboard motors or dual rudder systems. This valve enables periodic realignment of two engines that are linked together with a hydraulic tie bar, providing a solution where mechanical tie bars or solid links cannot be used.

Key Features:

• Assists with air removal from hydraulic steering systems without breaking into the system
• Allows periodic realignment of twin outboard motors or rudders
• Designed for use in conjunction with steering cylinders mounted to each engine
• Essential for maintaining proper engine alignment in hydraulic tie bar configurations
• Enables operators to periodically adjust engines and keep them in line
• Manufactured by SeaStar Solutions (Dometic) with a 2-year recreational warranty

This alignment valve is particularly useful in applications where space constraints prevent the installation of traditional mechanical tie bars. By allowing for periodic adjustment and air purging, it helps maintain optimal steering performance and engine alignment in twin-engine installations.
