Questions & Answers
Is this a genuine original part?
This is a premium quality aftermarket replacement part from the Multiflex Edge series, manufactured to exceed OEM standards for low-friction performance.
How do I know if it is compatible?
Check your existing cable ends. Generation I cables have a barrel-shaped stopper at the control end. If your control box is a Mercury Commander 2000 or 3000 series, this Gen I cable is the correct choice.
Can I use this for both throttle and shift?
Yes, these cables are designed for both shift and throttle applications on compatible Mercury and Mercruiser setups.
Note: To determine the correct length, measure your existing cable from tip to tip. If in doubt, please contact us at 4boats.co.uk before purchasing.
