Add to CartHaving a properly functioning steering system is a crucial part of enjoying a day out on the water. When your steering systems are not working properly, you may notice your steering wheel is harder to turn or if your rotary steering system is making a grinding noise. It may be time to replace parts or your whole steering system.
The NFB Safe-T II Mechanical Rotary Steering System is a great option. It is easy to install and comes with everything you need to replace our current system. This system is rugged, lightweight, and compact. This update will give your boat exceptional performance and handling with its 3-turn system. It is perfect for most V-4 outboard boats.
Applications:
Use NFB Safe-T II single-cable systems for single-station boats with a single non-power-assisted outboard engine (up to V-4). It offers minimal engine flutter or steering instability. Safe-T II accepts steering wheels up to 16" diameter. ( NFB Safe-T II is available in single cable configuration only).
NFB Safe-T II Steering System Features:
*Note: Product images include both new and old 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 Rotary Steering Cable Replacement, Measure Existing Cable as follows: Measure plastic cable jacket (“Y” dimension, shown in above drawing) in inches, add 18″, 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: A = Center line of wheel to gunwale (or deck, if routed downward), B = Dash to transom, C = Gunwale to centerline of cable connection at centered tiller.
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.
