The Xact range is built for the smoothest and easiest throttle and shift operation with the least lost motion: the all stainless steel armoured strand core stays flexible enough to be taken round the tighter bends a difficult routing forces on it, and every fitting is stainless steel or plated brass. It supersedes 3851074, catalogued earlier as a control cable.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n ⚙️ Key Features\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Xact control cable, 40 ft (12.19 m)\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  2.132 kg\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  All stainless steel armoured strand core, flexible enough for tight cable routings\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Fittings in stainless steel and plated brass\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Supersedes 3851074\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Neighbouring lengths in the same range: 21407252 is the 39 ft and 21407254 is the 41 ft\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  40 ft, 12.19 m\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  All stainless steel armored strand core for tighter bend radii\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Designed to reduce lost motion\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Length ft: 40\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Length m: 12.19 m\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Fits: Volvo Penta Xact powerboat control installations\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🔌 Function\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Carries movement from the helm control head to the engine's throttle lever or the reversing gear's shift lever, pushing and pulling a sliding inner wire inside a fixed outer conduit so that the lever position you set is reproduced at the engine end.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Increasing effort needed at the control head to shift or open the throttle\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Shift going through neutral with a clunk, or hunting for engagement\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Slack that has to be taken up at the trunnion again a few hours after adjustment\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Chafe marks, flattened sections or a cut outer where the cable passes a bulkhead\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Threaded end fitting seized, bent or stripped when the adjustment is disturbed\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🛠️ Service Notes\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Work the length out before ordering: shortest practical route from control mechanism to engine or transmission connection, plus a 200 mm radius at every bend, rounding up to the next listed length - a cable must not be shortened to suit\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  An order placed under 3851074 resolves to this number\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  The standard cable in the same 40 ft length is 21633511 - check which range the control head and engine bracket were set up for before moving between the two\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Select the exact cable length: fewer bends mean better operation and durability\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Measure in as straight a line as possible between the control mechanism and the engine or transmission connection, and allow a radius of 200 mm for every bend, so length = A + B + 200 mm\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  If the measurement falls between two standard lengths, select the longer cable\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  The cables must not be cut to size\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  A single engine installation requires two cables and a twin installation requires four\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🔄 Supersession \u0026amp;
