FOUR STEPS TO SELECT A STEERING SYSTEM FOR AN
INBOARD POWERED BOAT
1. From the Application Guide below select the System Number appropriate
for the vessel based on:
a) hull type displacement or planing,
b) length of vessel,
c) number of rudders, and
d) usage of vessel.
2. From the Order Guide below select the appropriate helms and accessory
hardware for each steering station.
3. From the Order Guide select the fitting and hose kits required for the
installation.
4. Confirm that you have sufficient space available in:
a) the area the cylinder is to be mounted, and
b) the dash area for the steering components.

3. For systems 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 SeaStar outboard
hose can be substituted for nylon or copper tube. These hoses must be ordered
in standard lengths. They cannot be cut to length.

CYLINDER INSTALLATION
Proper cylinder installation is the key to the successful operation of the
hydraulic steering system. An incorrectly installed cylinder is subject to
rapid seal and bearing wear and non-repairable damage.
An imaginary line drawn through the tiller arm hole at both hard over
positions will create the cylinder centre line. With tiller arm at hard over
positions, angle X and Y should be the same. Select the diagram and
dimensional data that corresponds with your cylinder model.
Notice
Not all possible cylinder mounting configurations
are shown, however, all necessary dimensions are shown regardless of mounting
configurations.

CAPILANO HELM PUMPS
1250V, 1275V & 1350
A unique variable displacement feature on the 1250V and 1275V helms allows
the helms-person to adjust the amount of steering wheel turns to their
preference within a predetermined range. The 1350 helm is a fixed displacement
pump.
1250V & 1275V Helm Pumps

.
TUBING, HOSES and FITTING KITS
The use of seamless soft annealed refrigeration copper tubing, type L is
recommended. If flexible hose is required, use hose that has a minimum
operating pressure of 1000PSI, a burst pressure of 5000PSI and the lowest
available expansion factor. The 1250V requires the use of 1/2″ OD copper tube
while the 1275V requires the use of 5/8″ OD copper tube. The 1350 Helm Pump
requires the use of 3/4″ OD copper tube.
Cylinder Hoses
Steering systems installed with copper tubing
require short pieces of flexible hose to accommodate slight cylinder movement.
Hoses are supplied with 1/2″ swivel flare nuts on each end. Hoses are sold as
a pair for single cylinder applications and separately for the variables of
twin cylinder installations.

Hynautic
INTRODUCTION
SeaStar offers rugged 3-line Hynautic Heavy Duty steering systems for most
work and pleasure vessels up to 70 feet.
Heavy Duty helms combine one or two bi-directional axial piston pumps with
pilot check and make-up check valving. The result is a unit which prevents
rudder feedback, is very efficient (even at low RPM), and is immediately
adaptable to multi-station use.
A wide choice of helm displacements and cylinder configurations make it
easy to spec a system which can handle a variety of large boat performance
requirements and accommodate most user preferences.
Features
Low friction heavy duty hydraulic steering.
Helm/cylinder combinations for most inboards. Marine grade materials.
Heavy duty helms available in three displacements, to accommodate most
applications and user preferences.
Helms available with 1 straight shaft or 3/4 tapered. Mount facing any
direction.
Quick air purge relief valve.
Fluid fill at remote reservoir.
Heavy duty brass cylinders. Two-axis articulation. Easy installation for
single or dual rudder vessels.
Meets or exceeds applicable standards.
Accepts most steering wheels.

Notice
The application guide should be used with
discretion. The chart is only a guide to selecting a steering system. A
steering system manufacturer cannot anticipate all the variables in
boat-rudder design that affect the steering loads. It is the final
responsibility of the boat builder/designer to specify maximum expected
steering loads. If the required information is not available, please see the
Displacement and Planning Hull data sheets on page 10-21 and page 10-22. These
sheets after being completely filled out can be faxed to Teleflex Technical
Support at 604-279-2202.

.
FOUR STEPS TO SELECT A STEERING SYSTEM FOR AN
INBOARD POWERED BOAT
1. From the Application Guide below select the System Number appropriate
for the vessel based on:
a) hull type displacement or planing,
b) length of vessel,
c) number of rudders, and
d) usage of vessel.
2. From the Order Guide below select the appropriate helms and accessory
hardware for each steering station.
3. From the Order Guide select the fitting and hose kits required for the
installation.
4. Confirm that you have sufficient space available in:
a) the area the cylinder is to be mounted, and
b) the dash area for the steering components.

Notice
1. For systems 1, 2 & 3 nylon tubing (3/8″
diameter) is the standard requirement for plumbing the system. Copper tubing
(3/8″ diameter) can be substituted but Fitting Kit HF5507 is required.
2. For systems 4 & 5 copper tubing (3/8″
diameter) is the standard requirement for plumbing the system. Fitting Kit
HF5508 is required.
3. For systems 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 SeaStar outboard
hose can be substituted for nylon or copper tube. These hoses must be ordered
in standard lengths. They cannot be cut to length.
