Uflex

<h3>About Uflex USA</h3><p><strong>Uflex USA</strong> has been a defining name in marine steering and control systems since its establishment in 1989. Headquartered in Sarasota, Florida, the company operates with full in-house manufacturing capabilities, giving it tight quality control across every product that leaves the facility. As an affiliate of the internationally respected Ultraflex Group, Uflex USA draws on a vast global engineering network to continuously advance its offerings in hydraulics, electronics, and emerging marine technologies.</p><h3>Engineering Built for the Water</h3><p>What sets Uflex apart in the marine industry is a relentless focus on making boat handling safer, more responsive, and less physically demanding. Whether you&apos;re navigating open ocean swells or threading through a crowded marina, the precision of your steering system directly affects both your confidence and your safety on the water. Uflex addresses this with a comprehensive range of mechanical, hydraulic, and electric steering systems — each engineered to deliver smooth, reliable performance even under the demanding conditions of saltwater environments.</p><p>The brand&apos;s hydraulic systems are particularly well regarded. Products like the GoTech, Hyco, Hytech, SilverSteer, ProTech, and MasterDrive lines cover everything from low-horsepower pontoon boats to high-performance offshore rigs, with solutions rated for outboards from under 115 HP all the way through high-torque applications above 350 HP. For boaters looking to upgrade from mechanical to hydraulic, Uflex&apos;s <a href="/7624-uflex-hydraulic-steering-assist-kit-20103">Hydraulic Steering Assist Kits</a> provide all the hardware needed for a complete, professional-grade installation — including helm pumps, front-mount cylinders, hydraulic hose, and fluid.</p><h3>A Complete Marine Control Ecosystem</h3><p>Beyond steering, Uflex produces a broad ecosystem of marine control products. Throttle and shift control systems — available in single- and twin-lever configurations for top-mount or side-mount applications — meet EN ISO 11547 safety standards to prevent accidental engine starts in gear. Uflex steering wheels range from sporty, racing-inspired designs to elegant leather- or wood-trimmed captain&apos;s wheels, blending Italian-influenced aesthetics with marine-grade durability. The brand&apos;s catalog also extends to trim tabs, hatch lifters, tiller hydraulic systems, and a full range of replacement components including cables, cylinders, and fittings.</p><p>One particularly notable advantage for installers and DIYers: Uflex helms are engineered to be cross-compatible with competing brands&apos; hoses, cylinders, and oil, making it straightforward to swap in a Uflex component during a partial upgrade or repair without replacing an entire system.</p><h3>Trusted by Builders and Boaters Alike</h3><p>Uflex products ship as factory-installed original equipment on many well-known boat brands worldwide, a testament to the confidence professional boat builders place in the brand&apos;s consistency and durability. Every Uflex product is backed by a two-year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, and the company is known for hands-on customer support to ensure proper installation and calibration. For anyone serious about their time on the water, Uflex USA represents a proven, purpose-built solution from a manufacturer that has dedicated more than three decades to getting marine steering right.</p>

Product Details

The Uflex B501B/L is a single lever top mount marine control designed for superior boat handling and safety. This dual-action control operates both throttle and shift functions with a single lever, suitable for outboard, inboard, and sterndrive (I/O) applications. The unit features a built-in neutral lock for safe operation but does not include a trim switch.

Key Features:

  • Neutral lock prevents accidental gear engagement unless engine is at idle speed
  • Chrome-plated high-resistance ABS housing with die-cast chrome-plated lever
  • Push-button shift disengagement for safe engine warm-up
  • Compatible with optional X12 neutral safety switch to prevent in-gear starting
  • Exceeds EN ISO 11547 marine control standards when used with X12 safety switch
  • Dual-action single lever design for simplified boat operation

Cable Compatibility:

  • Compatible with all Ultraflex control cables except C4
  • C14 and MACH14 cables connect directly without additional kit
  • C2, C8, and MACHZero cables use included K59 connection kit (40144C)
  • C5, C16, and MACH5 cables require K60 kit (40145E) - sold separately
  • C36 and MACH36 cables require K62 kit (40157J) - sold separately
  • C22 cable requires K61 kit (40146G) - sold separately

In twin-engine installations, a single trim switch will operate both engine trim systems, improving efficiency and reducing complexity at the helm. The black finish provides a sleek appearance suitable for modern boat interiors.

I had to re input my information because it was not going through. It worked the second time thanking me for the order. I hope I am not charged twice or receive a duplicate item ordered. Thank you.

Great so far

Quick and easy online shopping and check out. Shipping took long because it had to come from a manufacturer. Also considering the part was small shipping costs seemed high. Everything arrived in order though and part seems just right.

thanks

Best price on Bilstein Shocks on the web. Ordered shocks on 4/25 and they shipped same day. FedEx has delivery date of 4/28. Received confirmation email after order was complete. Website had product inventory next to part number was very helpful. Other websites don't have this and this patprticular part is on back order for 30 + days. Will update once shipment received.
