Uflex Racktech Rack & Pinion Steering System 11 ft (216-RACKTECH11)

The Uflex Racktech is a complete rack and pinion steering system designed as a direct replacement for ski boats, power-assisted sterndrives, and other single-station powerboat applications where rudder torque is minimal. The system uses a stainless flat-wrap cable for smooth, low-friction steering with minimal lost motion delivering a responsive, connected feel at the helm.

At 3.5 turns lock-to-lock, the Racktech offers a balanced ratio suitable for a wide range of outboard and sterndrive applications. This package includes everything needed for a complete installation: a pre-assembled M86 helm with steering cable, G86 shaft assembly, and X34 90 bezel. Compatible as a replacement for most rack and rotary steering applications where rudder torque is low.

Parts Desk Insights

Best Use Case: The Racktech 11 ft package is best suited for ski boats and sterndrive applications replacing an existing rack or rotary system where the cable run is 11 ft or less and rudder torque is minimal. Confirm the cable length requirement before purchase this system is available in multiple cable lengths, so direct customers to the correct variant for their boat. Not recommended for high-torque outboard applications or twin-engine setups. For customers needing a tilt helm, pair with or redirect to the Uflex T81FC Rotary Tilt Steering Helm.
