ACCESSORIES AND TOOLS
Fittings
All SeaStar Manual Hydraulic
steering systems utilize the
same style of fittings for all
applications. These are 3/8"
compression fittings which
utilize a 9/16"– 24 extra
fine thread.
Tubing/Hose
The tubing or hose requirements depend on the type of steering
system being considered. Please double check the application in
which you are using as in some cases Nylon or copper tube is not
to be used.

General Considerations
In most hydraulic steering installations the cylinder body moves as
the motor, outdrive or tiller arm is articulated. Provide sufficient
hose length to allow full-uninterrupted steering motion including
trim and tilt. If your splashwell is rated for a dual engine application
or you are mounting the engines on a gill bracket you must provide
enough steering hose to rig either twin or single engines. Inboard
or Sterndrive steering installations that use 3/8" copper or
extruded nylon tube must have a swaged hydraulic hose kit
(HF5508) between the steering cylinder and the rigid tube to
provide a flexible connection.
