Kobelt is a global leader in durable, high quality push-pull engine controls systems for boats and marine vessels. Push-Pull is a mechanically connected system that uses cables to connect the control head to the clutch and throttle.
Push-pull controls are an ideal solution for boats with one or two control stations and a total cable length of less that 50 feet (15 meters). For installations where the cable run is over 50 feet, it is important to note the number of bends in the cable run and it may best to opt for our electronic controls as an alternative though this depends on how easy it is to operate the clutch and engine interfaces. There are vessels with as much as 80 feet (24 meters) of push-pull cable that work well. If you need more than 50 feet for your push-pull application, please contact us as we would be happy to evaluate your requirements.
