{"product_id":"mercury-kabel-8m0085977","title":"Mercury Kabel 8M0085977","description":"Mercury – Platinum Plus Throttle and Shift Cable | 16 Ft | Mechanical Engine Control | 8M0085977 \n\n The Mercury Platinum Plus Throttle and Shift Cable is designed for Mercury Gen II SAE mechanical control systems that require smooth, steady response over longer routing runs. Built with Platinum Plus construction, it delivers a refined mechanical feel with reduced internal friction, helping maintain consistent throttle and shift movement from the helm to the engine. The 16-foot (4.9 meter) length is well suited for larger layouts and wider hulls where additional reach is needed without compromising control performance. \n\n Using the correct OEM cable length helps prevent tight bends, uneven resistance, and premature wear within the control system. Proper routing and correct adjustment support predictable control feel and dependable mechanical operation in everyday marine conditions. \n\n Key Features \n \n   Platinum Plus Construction – Reduces internal friction for smoother throttle and shift operation \n   16-Foot Cable Length (4.9 m) – Supports clean routing in extended mechanical control runs \n   Gen II SAE Control Interface – Designed specifically for Mercury Gen II SAE mechanical control systems \n   Marine-Grade Build – Enhanced corrosion resistance to withstand moisture, vibration, and marine exposure \n \n\n Engine \u0026amp; Boat Compatibility \n \n   Mercury outboards \n   Gen II SAE mechanical control systems \n   Non-electronic throttle and shift configurations \n   Compatible with Mercury Gen II SAE mechanical control installations requiring a 16-foot Platinum Plus throttle and shift cable \n \n\n Important Notes \n \n   Verify Gen II SAE control compatibility and required cable length before installation \n   Smooth routing with gradual bends and proper adjustment are critical to maintaining full throttle and shift travel and consistent performance \n   Mechanical Gen II SAE cables do not require electronic calibration \n \n\n FAQs \n\n  1) What control systems does this cable work with?  \nIt is designed for Mercury Gen II SAE mechanical throttle and shift control systems. \n\n  2) What length is this cable?  \nThis cable is 16 feet (4.9 meters) long, ideal for extended routing runs and wider hull layouts. \n\n  3) What advantages do Platinum Plus cables offer over standard cables?  \nPlatinum Plus cables reduce internal friction, resulting in lighter control effort, smoother movement, and reduced wear on control boxes and engine linkages. \n\n  4) Is this cable compatible with DTS systems?  \nNo. This is a mechanical throttle and shift cable for non-DTS control systems. \n\n  5) What should be checked during installation?  \nEnsure smooth routing without sharp bends, secure the cable properly, and confirm full throttle and shift travel before operating the engine.\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVervangt artikelnummers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 896145A16 · 8M0052687.
