Uflex UC132OBS Sterndrive Hydraulic Steering Cylinder – Universal Transom Mount
The Uflex UC132OBS is a universal hydraulic steering cylinder designed for sterndrive applications — attaching directly to the transom shield at the same location where a mechanical steering cable would otherwise connect. Built from anodized aluminum and stainless steel, it provides a clean, durable hydraulic steering solution for most sterndrive-powered boats without requiring custom fabrication or bracket modifications.
Key Features
- Universal Sterndrive Design — Fits most sterndrive applications; attaches to the transom shield at the standard steering cable connection point
- Anodized Aluminum and Stainless Steel Construction — Corrosion-resistant materials for long-term marine durability
- Transom Shield Mount — Replaces the mechanical steering cable connection for a clean hydraulic conversion
- Compatible with Uflex UP25, UP28FM, and UP28T Hydraulic Helms — Designed for use with these specific Uflex helm models
- Part Number: UC132OBS | SKU: 216-UC132OBS
Compatible Applications
- Most sterndrive-powered boats requiring a hydraulic steering cylinder at the transom shield
- Hydraulic steering conversions from mechanical cable systems on sterndrive applications
- Recommended for use with Uflex UP25, UP28FM, or UP28T hydraulic helms
- Verify fitment against your specific sterndrive model and transom shield configuration before ordering
- For outboard front-mount hydraulic cylinder applications, see the Uflex UC128TS1 Protech cylinder or UC130SVS1 SilverSteer cylinder
Parts Desk Insights
Best Use Case: The UC132OBS is the right cylinder when you’re converting a sterndrive boat from mechanical cable steering to hydraulic, or replacing a failed hydraulic cylinder on an existing sterndrive hydraulic system. The transom shield mount design means it installs at the same location as the original mechanical steering cable — a straightforward conversion that doesn’t require drilling new holes or fabricating custom brackets on most sterndrive applications. It’s specifically matched to Uflex UP25, UP28FM, and UP28T helms; if you’re building a complete sterndrive hydraulic system, pair this cylinder with one of those helms and the appropriate hose kit. For complete outboard hydraulic steering systems, see the Uflex PROTECH21 or PROTECH21T system kits instead.
