Product Details
XTreme™ 479 Premium 18' Control Cable (CCX20518) by SeaStar Solutions®. XTreme™ Hi-Performance Cable starts with a 1x13 wire core for strength and flexibility, even with heavy loads, next a nylon core coating for smooth action and long life. Over that a long-wearing HDPE liner; ultra smooth and lubed for life. Over that, 0.033" oil tempered lay wires for superior strength and performance, and finally the outer coat is a 0.34" super tough HDPE jacket for ultimate protection against UV, chemicals and weather.
With it's unique splined core XTreme™ delivers unparalleled smoothness and efficiency – with hardly any lost motion – even in the longest and most complex cable routings. This gives superior feel at the control, performance that until now was considered ‘impossible'.
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: Stiffer core/tighter fit offers less lost motion, but is harder to move. With longer and more complex runs, cable movement becomes progressively more difficult.
More flexible core/looser fit has an easier feel, but allows more lost motion. This approach leads to an overall sloppy feel, RPM loss or difficult gear engagement. These trade-offs aren't an issue for cables with XTreme™ technology because they are different — really different!
SeaStar Solutions's unique XTreme™ technology incorporates a patented splined core. Ridges on the core allow a close fit with the cable's 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.
