Uflex X52 Tilt Mechanism w/Mounting Hardware

The Uflex X52 Tilt Mechanism with Mounting Hardware is a precision marine steering component engineered for boats requiring adjustable helm positioning. This tilt mechanism delivers a practical 48-degree tilt range with five positive locking positions, allowing operators to optimize steering column angle for comfort and control during extended piloting sessions. The integrated mounting hardware simplifies installation on compatible Uflex steering systems.

The X52 tilt mechanism is engineered to fit Uflex tilt-mount rotary steering helms, rack and pinion steering helms, and tilt-mount hydraulic pump assemblies. Notably, it does not interface with SilverSteer or MasterDrive steering systems, so compatibility verification is essential before purchase. The five discrete locking positions ensure the helm remains secure at your preferred angle during operation, eliminating drift or unwanted repositioning. Weighing 4 pounds and measuring 7 by 7 by 7 inches, the assembly is compact enough for tight engine compartment installations while maintaining robust construction for saltwater environments.

This component suits recreational boaters, commercial fishing vessels, and offshore patrol craft where ergonomic steering control and helm adjustability improve operator fatigue and precision. The tilt range accommodates both standing and seated piloting positions, making it especially valuable on boats where multiple crew members share helm duties. Replacement or upgrade of existing tilt mechanisms benefits anyone experiencing wear in their current steering assembly or seeking improved positioning flexibility on their vessel.

Uflex USA is recognized within the marine industry for producing durable steering and hydraulic systems. The X52 tilt mechanism represents a direct-fit solution for maintaining or restoring steering functionality on vessels equipped with compatible Uflex helms, offering straightforward installation with included hardware.
