Compatibility and application
Control-cable fitment is not reliably defined by engine year. Match both end fittings and the existing EC-005 / C5 / 600A cable family. It is not for Mercury Generation II controls and is not the different EC-016 Mariner small-engine family.
Check before ordering: Compare both ends with the removed cable and measure the routed cable from end to end without tight bends. Many boats use one cable for shift and a second for throttle, so confirm the required quantity.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a Generation II cable?
No. It is the EC-005 / C5 / 600A-style family, not Mercury Generation II.
Can it operate shift or throttle?
Yes. One cable can serve either function in a compatible installation.
What is its travel?
The manufacturer specifies 97 mm travel.
Is fitment determined by engine year?
No. Match the cable family, both end fittings, route and length.
