Description
The Replacement Commander 512T-N8 Cylinder is designed to screw directly onto the outboard motor’s tilt-tube or pivot-tube, in exactly the same way as a conventional cable-steering unit. Like other tube-mount cylinders, it requires very little clearance to the side of the outboard motor. It is suitable for leisure boats with single outboards up to 135HP, or twin outboards up to 250HP TOTAL (counter-rotating).
