Detailed description
Mechanical control cable for transmitting throttle or shift movement between the control lever and the engine in compatible installations.
Applications listed in the catalogue: Johnson, Evinrude and OMC, from 1979 onwards, with C14 / F14 connections. Check the series, end fittings, travel and length of the installed cable. The engine brand alone does not confirm compatibility: the control and its connections must also match.
- Series: Riviera F14 / C14
- IMNASA reference: C14-09'
- Length: 9 feet (2,74 m)
- Travel: 75 mm
- Outer casing diameter: 7 mm
Measure the entire route between the control and the engine, including the necessary bends. Install the cable without sharp bends or chafing, and check the full throttle or shift movement before using the boat.
Sold individually. Throttle and shift may require separate cables. Representative image of the series, shared across its different lengths.
How to choose and measure the cable
The ordering length is given in feet and its equivalent in metres. 1 foot = 0,3048 m: 9 feet = 2,7432 m (approx. 2,74 m). The metre values shown are rounded to two decimal places; the nominal size identifying the reference is in feet.
To replace a Riviera or Ultraflex cable, the manufacturer instructs you to measure the complete cable from end to end, including its end fittings, and check the length marked on the casing. Do not measure only the outer casing section. If the previous installation was correct, do not add the allowance for engine turning again to the old cable measurement.
For a new installation, measure along the entire actual route from the control to the throttle or shift connection, including bends. For outboards, the catalogue diagram adds 3 feet (approx. 0,91 m) to allow engine movement. For inboards and sterndrives, route A+B is used. Choose the next available standard length that covers the required route, and avoid excess cable and sharp bends.
Casing length, diameter and travel
The outer casing length, its diameter and the working travel are different measurements. For example, a casing diameter of 8,6 mm indicates its outside thickness; a travel of 80 mm indicates the usable movement of the end fitting. Neither of these values is the cable length. The separate casing length is not published for these references and is not calculated by subtracting the travel.
Before choosing, compare both end fittings, thread or fastening type, cable series, control, engine, year and required travel. Adapters may be needed. Matching the engine brand and length alone does not guarantee a fit.
