Mercury Marine Platinum Plus Gen I 14 ft throttle and shift cable is an original mechanical control cable for connection between a compatible Gen I control and the engine. The cable can be used for either throttle or shift functions when the installation requires a 14 ft Gen I cable.
The cable features a layered construction with a polypropylene outer jacket that resists UV exposure and abrasion. Internally, it is built with 22 oil-tempered reinforcement wires, a lubricated core liner, and a hexagonal core geometry that supports mechanical power transmission.
The core is made of stainless steel, while the end fittings are made of plated brass. The construction is designed for operation in changing weather conditions and is rated for temperatures down to -17.8 °C.
The spare part is compatible with Gen I mechanical control systems for Mercury, Mariner, and MerCruiser installations. Always check the control system connection type, the required cable length, and the engine spare part information before ordering.
