When it comes to Mercury Gen II cables, Seastar Solutions—formerly known as Teleflex Marine—has been the leading name in marine control cables, known for precision engineering and long-term reliability. Gen 2 cables are designed for newer Mercury control systems and provide improved flexibility and smoother operation in tighter rigging spaces, making them essential for boats equipped with Mariner/Mercury/Mercruiser and other engines using Mercury 2003-date 4000 series controls.
TFXtreme Premium Technology
Seastar Solutions offers two distinct product lines for Mercury Gen II applications: their standard CC189 series and their premium TFXtreme (CCX189) series. The TFXtreme cables represent the pinnacle of control cable engineering, featuring a splined-core for easy movement and minimum lost motion with a 4-inch minimum bend radius, specifically designed for complex and/or long cable runs. This patent-pending splined-core design incorporates ridges on the core that allow a close fit with the cable's inner liner, but with minimum contact, so the core glides smoothly. The result is noticeably reduced drag and wear compared to standard cables, allowing any control to operate more easily over the life of the boat.
Built for Marine Durability
Both product lines feature stainless steel and brass fittings engineered to withstand harsh marine environments. While the standard CC189 series cables offer an 8-inch minimum bend radius, the premium TFXtreme models achieve a tighter 4-inch radius, providing greater installation flexibility for boats with challenging cable routing requirements. The TFXtreme series also incorporates an HDPE jacket made with high-density polyethylene material that is very hard, abrasion resistant and provides high resistance to water penetration, ensuring consistent performance season after season.
Why Choose Seastar Solutions for Gen II Applications
Seastar Solutions' Mercury Gen II cables are available in multiple lengths to accommodate various boat configurations, from compact center consoles to larger offshore vessels. The company's engineering heritage and focus on marine-specific applications means these cables are purpose-built for the unique demands of throttle and shift control. Whether you're replacing worn cables or outfitting a new rigging installation, Seastar Solutions provides the combination of smooth operation, minimal lost motion, and corrosion-resistant construction that serious boaters demand. The TFXtreme series particularly excels in installations requiring longer cable runs or complex routing through bulkheads and tight spaces, delivering professional-grade performance that reduces helm effort and enhances control precision.
