Ezy-Glide

<h3>About Ezy-Glide</h3><p>For more than four decades, <strong>Ezy-Glide, Inc.</strong> has been a trusted name in marine steering, engineering high-quality mechanical and hydraulic steering systems purpose-built for small to medium-sized vessels. Founded on a commitment to precision, reliability, and hands-on customer support, Ezy-Glide has carved out a well-earned reputation among recreational boaters, anglers, and marine industry professionals alike.</p><h3>A Legacy of Mechanical Stick Steering Innovation</h3><p>Ezy-Glide's heritage is rooted in mechanical stick steering. Their flagship <a href="/201013-steering-parts-accessories-ezy-glide-13303">Steering Parts &amp; Accessories</a> lineup centers on the iconic Ezy-Stik&reg; II Model 840 and Ezy-Stik&reg; III Model 870 — systems designed to place the operator at the front of the boat for improved visibility and control. The Ezy-Stik&reg; II features a slower steering ratio that delivers added mechanical advantage, making it well-suited for higher-horsepower four-stroke outboards up to 70 HP (or 90 HP jet drives). The Ezy-Stik&reg; III builds on that proven platform with additional refinements for demanding conditions.</p><p>What sets these systems apart is the attention to detail in their construction: a one-piece stainless steel drive spool housed in a durable composite enclosure, a patented &quot;CORLOK&quot; design that locks to the drum for added safety, and an interlocking handle-to-shaft connection that eliminates slippage. Every Ezy-Glide product meets or exceeds NMMA/ABYC/BIA standards, so boaters can count on consistent, confident steering every time they hit the water.</p><h3>Replacement Cables Built to Fit</h3><p>Keeping a steering system performing at its best means having the right cable — and Ezy-Glide's <a href="/201131-utility-cables-ezy-glide-13303">Utility Cables</a> make that easy. Ezy-Glide manufactures replacement steering cables for their Ezy-Stik&reg; II (Models 830 and 840) and Ezy-Stik&reg; III (Model 870) systems in virtually any length, available in half-foot increments. Whether you're replacing a worn cable on an older system or outfitting a custom installation, this flexibility means you're never stuck with an ill-fitting off-the-shelf option.</p><h3>Hydraulic Steering for Added Power and Comfort</h3><p>For boaters seeking the effortless feel of Hydraulic Steering, Ezy-Glide offers the HydraStik&reg;, HydraGlide&reg;, and SideKick&reg; systems. These hydraulic solutions preserve the familiar up-front stick steering ergonomics that Ezy-Glide is known for, while eliminating road feedback and dramatically reducing steering effort — especially valuable at higher speeds or with heavier engines. The result is a more comfortable, less fatiguing boating experience without sacrificing the direct, responsive feel that stick steering enthusiasts love.</p><h3>Accessories and Specialized Lubricants</h3><p>Beyond complete systems, Ezy-Glide supports long-term performance with a full range of replacement parts and accessories, including replacement housings, ball knobs, and mounting hardware. They also offer their proprietary 80 Below&reg; Action Lube, a specialized lubricant formulated specifically for Ezy-Stik&reg; steering systems to maintain smooth, reliable operation across seasons and conditions.</p><p>Whether you're outfitting a new boat, upgrading an aging helm, or sourcing a replacement part for a system that's been running strong for years, Ezy-Glide's focused expertise in marine steering makes them a go-to source for boaters who value quality and reliability on the water.</p>
