Description
Seastar Premium Control Cable Xtreme CCX633 โ Black 10 foot โ 72 foot
Traditional cables vary by the stiffness of the core wire and how tightly it fits in the casing. Thus the classic trade-offs that have existed in control cable design are:
โข Stiffer core/tighter fit โ offers less lost motion, but is harder to move. With longer and more complex runs, cable movement becomes progressively more difficult.
โข More flexible core/looser fit โ has an easier feel, but has more lost motion. This approach leads to an overall sloppy feel, RPM variation or difficult gear engagement.
These trade-offs arenโt an issue with XTREMEโข cables because they are different โ really different XTREMEโs unique design incorporates a patent-pending splined core. Ridges on the core allow a close fit with the
cableโs inner liner, but with minimum contact, so the core glides back and forth smoothly like a skater on ice.
RESULT: a control cable with easy movement AND minimum lost motion.

How to Choose the Right 3300/33C Series Cable
SeaStar Solutionsยฎ offers five models of universal 3300 series type cables, each suited to certain operating conditions and installation parameters. Below are key variables that affect how cables perform:
To choose the right 3300/33C Series Cable from SeaStar Solutionsยฎ, consider the following variables that affect cable performance:
- Backlash: The lost motion between input and output movement. Backlash results in free play felt at the control handle.
- Efficiency: The percentage of input force transmitted as output force. Higher efficiency means more force is transmitted.
- Breakaway: The force required to initiate cable motion. Excessive breakaway can lead to delayed response.
- Cable Routing: Shorter and straighter routing improves cable performance, while longer and bent routing reduces efficiency and increases breakaway and backlash.
- Environment: Harsh environments require cables with rugged construction, thicker conduits, and stainless steel fittings for longevity.
Here are the different cable types in the 33 Series:
- CC230: Good for backlash, breakaway, efficiency, long/complex routings, and harsh environments.
- CC330: Better than CC230 in backlash, breakaway, efficiency, long/complex routings, and superior in harsh environments.
- CC332: Better than CC330 in backlash, breakaway, efficiency, long/complex routings, and superior in harsh environments.
- CCX633/632: Superior to the previous cables in backlash, breakaway, efficiency, long/complex routings, and superior in harsh environments.
