Vetus HCAB18 - High Performance Series Steering Cable up to 125 HP, 18 ft (5486 mm)
The Vetus HCAB18 is a dedicated mechanical steering cable for Vetus High Performance zero-feedback steering systems. It is intended for outboard and small inboard installations with engine outputs up to 125 HP, ensuring smooth, precise, and reliable transmission of steering forces from helm to engine.
With a total inner cable length of 18 ft (5486.4 mm) and a cable travel of 230 mm, the HCAB18 supports High Performance helms with 3.8 turns lock-to-lock for controlled and predictable steering response. The cable is engineered to minimize friction and unwanted feedback at the steering wheel, providing comfortable operation even under higher loads. The outer jacket is approximately 75 cm shorter than the inner cable, which should be taken into account when routing.
