Uflex Fourtech 13' Mach Rotary Steering System (FOURTECH13)

Maximize your boat’s handling and durability with the Uflex Fourtech 13' Mach Rotary Steering System. This premium mechanical steering kit is engineered for those who demand a high-performance feel without the complexity of hydraulics. The heart of the system is the T91 Planetary Gear Helm, which utilizes three gears to distribute steering loads evenly, providing a more balanced and precise response compared to standard single-gear rotary helms.

High-Performance Planetary Engineering

The FOURTECH13 is a direct "drop-in" replacement for competing steering systems, requiring no new holes for installation. The planetary gear design ensures that the drive shaft remains centered, allowing for a more compact helm that saves valuable space behind the dashboard.³ Paired with the ultra-flexible M90 Mach cable, this system delivers a significantly smoother steering experience with reduced backlash.

Key Features:

• T91 Planetary Gear Helm: Distributes steering pressure across three gears to reduce wear and provide a smooth, consistent feel throughout the turn.

• M90 Mach Steering Cable (13'): Includes a patented, highly flexible steering cable with a high-performance core. Its superior bend radius makes it perfect for narrow engine wells or tight routing.

• Compact Design: The centered drive shaft design requires less clearance behind the dash than traditional rotary systems.

• Easy Installation: Designed as a universal replacement for most standard steering helms; fits 3/4" tapered shafts.

• Durable Materials: Features a stainless steel cable output end and a patented gasket system designed to keep internal lubrication in and salt/water out.

• Fast Connect System: The M90 cable features a "plug-and-play" connection at the helm, allowing for rapid assembly and easier future maintenance.

Selection Tip:

The FOURTECH13 is an ideal upgrade for boats with moderate horsepower that do not exceed the vessel’s maximum power rating. For high-speed hulls (consistently over 50 MPH) or engines with high steering torque, a Uflex SilverSteer™ Hydraulic System may be more suitable.
