Teleflex SSX17716 Xtreme Tilt NFB Mechanical Rotary Steering Kit 16 ft

The Teleflex SSX17716 (now marketed under SeaStar Solutions by Dometic) is a complete XTREME™ Tilt No FeedBack (NFB) Mechanical Rotary Steering Kit with a 16-foot steering cable. Engineered as the smoothest and lowest-effort mechanical helm available, this system is purpose-built for single-station boats with single non-power-assisted outboard engines up to V6 with minimal engine flutter.

The XTREME NFB system combines a high-efficiency custom gear train with SeaStar's patented No FeedBack clutch technology to virtually eliminate propeller torque feedback at the wheel. The compact Zamak casting and zinc-plated steel construction deliver reduced weight and superior helm strength — all within a smaller footprint that easily accommodates tight or shallow dash helm stations.

Key Features:

• Patented No FeedBack (NFB) clutch mechanism minimizes engine torque effects and reduces steering backlash
• XTREME steering cable features splined ridges on the inner liner to reduce internal friction, minimize lost motion, and extend cable life
• 48 degrees of tilt with 5 adjustment positions via the Sport Tilt Mechanism for customizable driving ergonomics
• Quick-connect feature on both the steering cable and spent travel tube — no tools required for cable installation
• Compact Zamak housing with new-style bezel for reduced weight and superior strength
• Installs in the same mounting pattern and bracket location as existing SeaStar Solutions and Teleflex steering systems — no dashboard modifications required
• Designed, assembled, and made in the USA

Kit Includes:

• XTREME Tilt NFB Helm (SHX97606)
• Sport Tilt Mechanism / Bezel (SH91800B)
• 16 ft XTREME QC Steering Cable (SSCX6416)
• Hardware kit and instruction sheets

This kit is a direct replacement for original Teleflex Marine factory steering systems and is ideal for upgrading boats that suffer from engine torque feedback or that have higher-horsepower engines and larger wetted hull surfaces. No hydraulic bleeding or electrical wiring is required for installation.
