SeaStar Pro Outboard Hydraulic Steering Kit

SeaStar PRO Outboard Hydraulic Steering Kit

This kits has been discontinued by the manufacturer

The replacement kit is the SeaStar Pro Hydraulic Steering Kit without Hoses HK7500-4 and the SeaStar Pro Kevlar-Reinforced Hydraulic Hose Kit in the desired length.

The SeaStar PRO Hydraulic Steering Kit is a complete steering kit for outboard motors that includes a helm, steering cylinder, hoses, fittings, steering fluid, and instructions. SeaStar PRO steering systems are suited for critical high speed, single powered outboard boats such as bass, flats, combo race/ski, and other performance-oriented boats capable of speeds in excess of 65 MPH. This updated system includes Positionable Stainless Steel O-Ring (ORB) fittings for easy hose routing.

Kit Includes:

• SeaStar PRO Helm
• HC6345-3 PRO Steering Cylinder
• (2) Kevlar-Reinforced Hoses
• (2) Bottles of SeaStar Steering Fluid
• Fittings and instructions

Features:

• For high-speed, single powered outboard boats
• Includes Kevlar-reinforced hydraulic steering hoses
• Compact helm has only a 4-7/16” footprint – needs only 3” dash hole (tilt requires larger hole)
• Positionable Stainless Steel O-Ring (ORB) fittings for easy hose routing
• New End Gland Sealing System for maximum protection from saltwater

How to Measure Hydraulic Hoses

New Installation:

Measure hose 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.

Most cylinders move with the engine/rudder; enough slack must be left in hoses/tubing to prevent sharp bends (less than 3” radius) and/or kinking.

Where rigid tubing is used, flexible hoses must be installed between tubing and cylinder, to allow cylinder articulation.

For Most Cylinders, add A, B & C + 24”, round up to next even foot. Order that length hose kit, or twice that length in tubing.

Hose routings (such as those found on pontoon boats) may vary from this drawing. Confirm length by laying a garden hose along cable path and measure run from wheel to engine connection point.

Typical Single Station Routing:

A single, front-mount outboard cylinder system is shown in this diagram.

Replacement of Hydraulic Steering:

If you removed the old hoses, measure for replacement hoses as follows:

Measure existing hose from tip to tip, round up to next even foot. Order that length hose kit, or twice that length in tubing.
