Owners of high-speed and racing boats need a reliable outboard dual cable steering system to achieve optimal performance. For the high-performance boater, we recommend the Teleflex dual steering system. The No FeedBack technology combines precision with the control associated with a dual cable rack and pinion system. The Pro Rack is designed for high performance hulls and motors. These boats are normally engine flutter-prone, experience instability, or just require an extra margin of control at the helm. This dual steering system is designed as a drop-in replacement for Teleflex's "The Rack".
Applications:
The Teleflex dual steering systems are suitable for single-station, high performance boats with single, non-power-assisted outboards (up to V-6). Use NFB Rack with up to 16” steering wheels.
Features:
Note: Product images include both old and new packaging
Replacement of Existing Cable: If possible, find the part number stamped on the plastic jacket of the old cable. If you removed the old cable, measure for the replacement cable as follows:

For Rack Steering Cable Replacement, Measure Existing Cable as follows: Measure plastic cable jacket (“Y” dimension shown in above drawing) in inches, add 30″, and round up to next foot. Order that length cable.
New Installation: Measure cable routing path from wheel center line to engine connection, as follows:
For Cable Installations through the Engine Tilt Tube: Add A, B & C + 6″, then round up to the next foot. Order that length cable.
For Cables Mounted to Transom, Splashwell or Stringer: Add A, B & C, then subtract 6″ and round up to the next foot. Order that length cable.
TYPICAL SINGLE STATION ROUTING

A single-cable, starboard drive push-pull mechanical cable system is shown in this diagram. If your mechanical system is different than the one depicted and/or you have any questions about mechanical steering after reviewing this guide, please contact Teleflex (Mechanical) Technical Service at (610)-495-7011 or www.teleflexmarine.com
Cable routings (such as those found on pontoon boats) may vary from this drawing. Confirm length by laying a garden hose or similar object) along cable path and measure run from wheel to engine connection point.

What is the NFB Pro Rack Outboard Dual Cable Steering System designed for?
The NFB Pro Rack Outboard Dual Cable Steering System is designed for single-station, high-performance boats with single, non-power-assisted outboard engines up to V-6. It uses dual cables and No FeedBack™ technology to provide precise steering control for high-performance hulls and motors.
What steering wheel size is compatible with the NFB Pro Rack system?
The NFB Rack system is designed for use with steering wheels up to 16 inches. Before installation, verify that your steering wheel and existing steering components meet the specifications provided for the system.
What does the NFB technology do in this dual cable steering system?
The patented No FeedBack™ steering mechanism is designed to combine precise steering with the control of a dual cable rack and pinion system. The dual cables minimize lost motion, while the system provides a precise feel with four turns from lock-to-lock.
What is included with the NFB Pro Rack Outboard Dual Cable Steering System?
The kit includes the steering cable, helm, 90° bezel, and mounting hardware. The back-mount design allows placement in the dash, and the mounting hardware fits industry-standard Teleflex and Morse rack holes.
How do I determine the correct steering cable length for a replacement installation?
For an existing rack steering cable, measure the plastic cable jacket, add 30 inches, and round up to the next foot. If the old cable is unavailable, measure the routing path using the specified A, B, and C dimensions and apply the appropriate calculation based on whether the cable runs through the engine tilt tube or is mounted to the transom, splashwell, or stringer.
What should I verify before installing the NFB Pro Rack steering system?
Verify that your boat is a single-station, high-performance application with a single, non-power-assisted outboard up to V-6 and that the steering wheel is no larger than 16 inches. Also confirm the required cable length and routing before ordering. The system is described as a drop-in replacement for Teleflex's "The Rack."
