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>

Pretty easy

Ordered item on Wednesday, June 20, 2012. The item was shipped as promised in 24 hours, good customer service and reasonable prices. order#19064. Thanks

Fast and easy with Amazon log in

awsome

I like the &quot;pay with amazon&quot; quick link

Found the parts I needed for my vehicle's TPMS system that I could not get anywhere else. They were a better price than any of the other online stores and got my order shipped out in a timely fashion.

Before I buy any auto part I check prices at Autoplicity. Almost always the price is significantly lower than anywhere else: Rock Auto, Summit, Jegs, etc... <br><br>Do yourself a favor and check their prices prior to your next purchase and save yourself some money.

Great selection

Easy to deal with about shipping questions, great prices, and friendly customer service. One of the few places who says "I'll return you call" and actually does. Thanks...

Ordered a Thule hitch and was a little skeptical because I hadn't heard of this company. I was pleasantly surprised by the quickness of response when I ordered, I received an email immediately, and the order arrived just 2 days after it was ordered. This company goes to the top of my list.

Great company. Fast shipping and excellent communication. AAA+++
