Seastar Solutions SSX17618 Xtreme NFB 18' Rotary Mechanical Steering Kit

The Seastar Solutions SSX17618 Xtreme NFB Mechanical Steering System delivers the smoothest and lowest effort single cable mechanical helm in the marine industry, featuring advanced No FeedBack technology that locks out steering loads for effortless control. This system features a smooth 4.2 turns lock-to-lock helm and a standard 3/4" tapered keyed steering shaft, making it the perfect upgrade for single-station boats with non-power-assisted outboard engines.

Key Features:

• Internal NFB clutch mechanism grips the steering shaft when not actively steering, significantly decreasing prop torque feedback
• 30% reduction in steering wheel effort compared to standard 4.2 helm systems
• Xtreme cable offers unprecedented smooth action with minimal slop and reduced backlash for less wheel play
• Quick connect feature on both cable and travel tube sides—no tools required for installation
• Helm features new gear train with Zamac casting and zinc plated steel construction for smooth feel and durability
• Smallest footprint possible fits all existing installations and accommodates small or tight dashboard helm stations

This complete kit is suitable for most single-station boats with a single non-power-assisted outboard engine up to V-6 (approximately 150 HP) with minimal engine flutter or steering instability. The kit includes helm, cable, and bezel to fully replace an existing steering system or for new installations. The 18-foot cable length is measured from the helm center to the engine connection point. Designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA.
