EZY-Glide EZY-Stik Replacement Cable
When it's time to replace the cable on your EZY-Glide EZY-Stik mechanical steering system, getting the right fit matters. These replacement cables work specifically with EZY-Stik II 840 and EZY-Stik III 870 systems. To determine the correct length, measure from your helm's center to the engine's center, add 8 inches, then round up to the nearest half foot. These cables are kept in stock for same-day shipping, getting you back on the water quickly. Note that these cables are designed exclusively for EZY-Glide EZY-Stik systems and aren't compatible with other steering brands.
How to Measure a Replacement Cable Length from EZY-Glide:
- Measure from the center of the helm position to the center of the engine.
- Add 8" to this measurement.
- Round up your system length measurement to the nearest 1/2 foot. (For example, a 12'2" measurement would order a 12-1/2' cable)
Frequently Asked Questions
What steering systems is this cable compatible with?
This cable is for the EZY-Glide EZY-Stik II Model 840 and EZY-Stik III Model 870 mechanical steering systems. It will not work with any other steering brand or model. If you have a different stick steering system or a standard rotary/rack helm, this is not the correct cable. Check the model designation on your helm before ordering.
How do I measure for the correct cable length?
EZY-Glide uses a different measurement method than most other steering cable brands. Measure from the center of your helm position to the center of the engine, add 8 inches to that measurement, then round up to the nearest half foot. For example, a measurement of 12 feet 2 inches becomes a 12.5-foot cable order. Cables are available in half-foot increments from 7 to 15 feet.
Why does this cable use a different measurement method than standard steering cables?
The EZY-Stik is a stick-steering system mounted forward of the operator rather than at a conventional wheel helm, so the cable routing geometry differs from a typical rotary or rack-and-pinion setup. The 8-inch add-on accounts for the connection geometry specific to the EZY-Stik design. Using a standard steering cable measurement method on this system will result in an incorrectly sized cable.
What engine sizes are the EZY-Stik systems this cable fits rated for?
The EZY-Stik II Model 840 and EZY-Stik III Model 870 are for outboard engines up to 70 HP and jet drives up to 90 HP. If your engine exceeds these ratings, the EZY-Stik mechanical system, and by extension this replacement cable, is not appropriate for your application.
Can I use a SeaStar, Teleflex, or other brand cable as a substitute?
No. This cable is engineered for EZY-Glide EZY-Stik systems and uses proprietary end connections that are not interchangeable with SeaStar, Dometic, Quicksilver, or other standard marine cable types. Using a non-EZY-Glide cable on an EZY-Stik helm will result in improper fitment and potentially unsafe steering.
