Raymarine 5" Pushrod Extension f/Tiller Pilots

The Raymarine 5" Pushrod Extension for Tiller Pilots is a precision accessory engineered for boaters who demand reliable autopilot performance on small to mid-size vessels. Whether you're running a center console, open fishery, or cruising sailboat with tiller steering, this extension bridges the gap between your autopilot control unit and the tiller mechanism itself. Available for purchase online, this OEM component is essential when your boat's layout requires additional reach from the pilot to the helm.

Raymarine's pushrod extension maintains the same sealed, corrosion-resistant construction as the primary pilot linkage, ensuring smooth linear transmission without binding or deflection even in rough seas. The 5-inch extension allows you to position your autopilot control unit away from the tiller arm without compromising steering response or introducing mechanical slack. Weighing just 0.25 pounds and measuring compact at 6 x 1 x 7 inches, this extension integrates seamlessly into existing Raymarine tiller pilot systems, connecting via standard pushrod fittings that lock securely to prevent disconnection during operation.

Anglers and cruising boaters benefit most when planning retrofit installations or replacing worn linkage on established autopilot setups. Installation requires no special tools—simply thread the extension onto both ends of your existing rod or between the control unit and tiller arm. If you're upgrading an older Raymarine tiller pilot or extending reach on a newly configured helm station, verify your current rod diameter and fitting type before ordering to ensure compatibility with your specific pilot model.
