This is useful when cockpit geometry forces the pilot body a bit farther away, such as around coamings, seats, or a hatch lid.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is commonly used on tiller-steered sailboats running Simrad TP10, TP22, or TP32 systems, where small changes in length help keep the drive line straight through the tiller’s swing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdds 90 mm (3.6 in) of length to the tiller pilot pushrod for additional reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsed with Simrad Tillerpilot models TP10, TP22, and TP32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMechanical add-on that does not require wiring changes or network setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps keep the pilot in a workable mounting position when cockpit hardware or layout limits space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan be joined with other Simrad pushrod extensions to create a longer total extension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis part changes the overall pushrod length, not the pilot’s stroke. Before ordering, measure the extra reach you need between the pilot and the tiller drive point and make sure you still have clearance through the full range of tiller travel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall the extension as part of the pushrod assembly so the actuator stays square to the tiller attachment point. After fitting, move the tiller through hard-over positions and confirm nothing binds or contacts the cockpit sole, coaming, or stowage area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse cases on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eA good match for cruising boats that rely on a tiller pilot for longer beats and motoring runs, especially when the pilot has to be mounted slightly farther outboard or aft than the standard rod length allows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse off salt after heavy spray and periodically check the joints for looseness as part of routine autopilot inspection. Keeping the linkage clean helps avoid play that can show up as wandering on course.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simrad","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269678231733,"sku":"QBP388723","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1300974_qbp388723.jpg?v=1771545186","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp388723","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
