Uflex LTB1 Liquid Tie Bar

The Uflex LTB1 Liquid Tie Bar is a precision steering system component designed specifically for the Uflex Up Series hydraulic steering lineup. This liquid tie bar integrates into the cable-to-hydraulic steering architecture that powers modern marine helm systems, delivering direct feedback and reliable directional control in both recreational and commercial vessel applications.

The LTB1 is engineered as an OEM replacement component for existing Uflex Up Series installations, ensuring seamless compatibility with the series' integrated hydraulic steering mechanism. Measuring 3 x 3 x 5 inches and weighing just 1 lb, the tie bar maintains the compact footprint essential for retrofit applications and new-build marine installations where space efficiency matters. Its lightweight design minimizes load on steering actuators while maintaining the rigidity required for precise helm response across varying sea conditions and operational speeds.

Vessel operators who rely on Uflex hydraulic steering systems—from saltwater patrol boats to offshore fishing platforms—depend on OEM-spec components to maintain the integrity of their steering systems. The LTB1 tie bar replacement ensures that helm response remains predictable and damage to the steering linkage does not compromise vessel handling. Uflex USA's precision manufacturing standards apply to every component in their steering lineup, and this tie bar is no exception.

Whether maintaining a current Uflex Up Series installation or upgrading helm components on a larger fleet, sourcing the correct OEM part number is critical to system longevity. The LTB1 Liquid Tie Bar (MPN LTB1, UPC 702755016229) is the specified component for this application and should only be installed by technicians familiar with Uflex marine steering architecture.
