This all-in-one kit includes a rotary helm, steering cable, and bezel, making it an ideal replacement or upgrade for mechanical steering systems on a wide range of boats.

Engineered with UFlex’s advanced planetary gear design, the Rotech system delivers low steering effort, reduced backlash, and enhanced durability, ensuring consistent performance even in demanding marine conditions.

Core Technology & Performance

• Planetary Gear Helm: The T71FC helm features a unique gear arrangement that reduces steering effort and minimizes "lost motion," providing a more balanced and responsive feel at the wheel.

• Direct "Drop-In" Replacement: This system is designed to fit existing holes in the dash, making it an ideal upgrade for competing rotary systems without the need for additional drilling.

• Fast Connect System: Features a quick-connect design for the steering cable, allowing for a tool-free connection at the helm that saves time during installation.

• Compact Footprint: The helm is centered on the drive shaft, requiring less room behind the dash, which is essential for boats with limited console space

Installation Tip: When routing the M66 steering cable, ensure you maintain a minimum bend radius of 7.9 inches. Tighter bends can lead to stiff steering and premature cable wear. For boats capable of speeds over 50 MPH, it is generally recommended to upgrade to a dual-cable or hydraulic system for safety.
