CONTROL CABLES, CCX205 SERIES JOHNSON/EV/OMC 1979+

SeaStar / Teleflex Xtreme™ Control Cable – CCX205 Series (Johnson / Evinrude / OMC 1979+)

The SeaStar Teleflex Xtreme Control Cable CCX205 Series is a premium marine throttle and shift control cable specifically engineered for Johnson®, Evinrude®, and OMC® mechanical control systems manufactured after 1979. Part of the advanced Xtreme™ series, the CCX205 cables are designed to deliver exceptionally smooth, precise operation with reduced friction, minimal backlash, and enhanced flexibility, even in demanding marine environments.

Built with a lubricated low-friction core and rugged outer jacket, the CCX205 series is optimized for tight bends, long cable runs, and complex routing, reducing control effort while improving throttle and shift responsiveness at the helm. Designed as a direct replacement for post-1979 OMC-style control cables, these cables provide dependable long-term performance for recreational and commercial marine applications.
