Control cables EEC-036/C36 GEN II · Imnasa · MerCruiser

Choose the cable series, then the length in feet and metres. Check the engine model and year, control generation, end fittings and travel: engine brand alone does not guarantee compatibility. The same product pages are available by engine, cable manufacturer or model.

Cable brand: Imnasa. Mechanical control cable for transmitting throttle or gearshift movement between the control lever and the engine in compatible installations.

Engine applications: Mercury, MerCruiser GEN II. Before ordering, compare both end fittings, threads or attachments, cable series, control, engine, year and required stroke. Adaptors may be needed. Matching engine brand and length alone does not establish compatibility.

• Stroke: 80 mm
• Sheath diameter: 8,6 mm

How to choose and measure the cable

Ordering length is shown in feet and metres. 1 foot = 0.3048 m: 9 ft = 2.7432 m (approximately 2.74 m). Displayed metres are rounded to two decimals; the reference identifies the commercial length in feet.

For Imnasa references, feet identify the nominal ordering length in the catalogue. The consulted documentation does not provide a separate sheath length or a measurement datum for each terminal. First check the series and length printed on the existing cable. If you only know the sheath length, confirm the reference before ordering; do not apply a fixed terminal allowance.

For a new installation, measure the actual route from the control to the throttle or shift connection, including bends. For outboards, the catalogue diagram adds 3 ft (approximately 0.91 m) to allow engine movement. For inboards and sterndrives, use route A+B. Choose the next available commercial length that covers the route and avoid excessive slack and tight bends.

Sheath length, diameter and stroke

Outer sheath length, sheath diameter and working stroke are different measurements. A sheath diameter of 8.6 mm describes its outside thickness; an 80 mm stroke describes the useful terminal movement. Neither is the cable length. Separate sheath lengths are not published for these references and cannot be calculated by subtracting the stroke.

Before ordering, compare both end fittings, threads or attachments, cable series, control, engine, year and required stroke. Adaptors may be needed. Matching engine brand and length alone does not establish compatibility.
