Simrad Pedestal Bracket, 90 mm (3.6 in)

Overview

The Simrad PB90 is a 90 mm (3.6 in) pedestal bracket used to raise the fixed end of a tillerpilot installation when the mounting surface sits too low. It gives the pilot a proper stand-off so the drive can run closer to level and stay aligned with the tiller through its stroke.

On a sailboat cockpit, small height differences at the fixed mount can change the pilot angle enough to cause binding, uneven loads, or interference with coamings and seats. PB90 is a straightforward way to match the mount height to your geometry without reworking the surrounding structure.

Key features

• 90 mm (3.6 in) pedestal height for raising the fixed mounting point on a tillerpilot setup
• Helps keep the pilot body closer to level, which supports cleaner alignment with the tiller pin
• Mounts on a horizontal surface near the tiller where extra stand-off height is needed
• OEM replacement part for boats already using a PB90 pedestal bracket
• Useful when cockpit coamings, seats, or deck molding place the standard mounting point too low

Compatibility and fit

Confirm the 90 mm stand-off suits your boat by checking the height you need from the mounting surface to the pilot’s fixed-end attachment point. The goal is a straight push line to the tiller pin with enough clearance so the pilot does not contact the cockpit structure at any rudder angle.

Installation and setup

Position the bracket so the pilot runs in line with the tiller and has full travel without hitting cushions, coamings, or lockers. Through-bolting with appropriate backing is common on cored or thin laminates, and bedding the fasteners helps keep water out of the mounting holes.

Use on board

This bracket is a practical match for sailboats using cockpit-mounted tillerpilots where the mounting geometry needs a 90 mm lift. It fits well for coastal cruising and singlehanded sailing where a stable, repeatable fixed mount matters every time the pilot goes on and off.
