The linear actuator is an assembly of an Octopus reversing pump and a marine hydraulic cylinder. This assembly is mounted on the rudder tiller-arm or quadrant. When the autopilot is not in use the cylinder runs freely along with the rudder. When the automatic pilot is in use a solenoid valve on the actuator closes and locks the cylinder. Steering signals from the pilot are now fed to the D.C. motor, which drives the pump to move the cylinder back and forth. De-energized, the solenoid valve immediately disconnects the automatic pilot from the rudder. The actuator has a small translucent oil reservoir, making it easy to check fluid levels. These actuators have only five moving parts. Mechanical simplicity gives our product reliability and ease of service when compared to complicated gear and screw actuators, making our units a favorite for offshore mariners. These actuators are shipped from our factory completely filled with oil and require no additional plumbing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eAverage Current 4-6 amps\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eMax Current 19amps\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e12vDC\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eCylinder Bore: 38mm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eVariable Flow Rate: 500cc - 1 litre\/min\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eStroke: 178mm\/7in\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eHardover Time(Suggested): 12-14 sec\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eMax Rudder Torque: 750Nm\/6,630lbin\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003ePeak Thrust: 400Kg\/882lbs\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eMax boat Length: 14m\/45' \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Octopus Autopilot Hydraulic Linear Actuator Up to 45 or 24,200lbs 7 Stroke is a simple, effective way to drive the rudder on a boat equipped with a mechanical steering system.

It eliminates installation headaches by providing ample length to route cleanly from the rudder post to your helm station, avoiding clutter and potential wear points. Boaters upgrading from compact setups to bigger boats often discover this accessory is a game-changer, preserving the precision your autopilot demands for accurate course holding and tight maneuvers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003eEngineered for Marine Reliability\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrecision Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tailored exclusively for the GRF 10 rudder feedback sensor, ensuring plug-and-play connectivity with GHP series autopilots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach Without Compromise:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 meters of high-quality cabling delivers uninterrupted feedback signals, critical for responsive steering in rough seas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRugged Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black marine-grade materials resist corrosion, UV rays, and abrasion, built to endure years of exposure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStreamlined Installation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Simple connection minimizes downtime, letting you focus on the water rather than wiring woes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eGarmin's commitment to innovation means this isn't just a cable—it's a vital link in your autopilot ecosystem, blending essential utility with superior build quality. Mechanical finesse allows for flexible routing without signal loss, making it ideal for sailboats, power yachts, or fishing vessels where rudder feedback is non-negotiable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003eReal-World Benefits for Autopilot Performance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIn practice, extending your GRF 10 setup enhances autopilot reliability. Rudder feedback sensors like the GRF 10 monitor tiller or quadrant movement, feeding data to your autopilot for adjustments down to the degree. A stretched installation without proper extension can introduce noise or latency, leading to erratic steering. This cable counters that by maintaining low-resistance pathways, supporting Garmin's advanced algorithms for everything from wind-vane steering to power-assisted docking. Skip the guesswork and frustration—opt for proven marine tech that keeps you on course.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003eTips for Optimal Use and Longevity\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eTo maximize performance, secure the cable away from high-heat sources like engines and use cable ties for strain relief at connection points. Regular inspections for chafing ensure it performs season after season. Paired with Garmin's one-year limited warranty, it's a low-risk addition that pays dividends in smoother voyages. Whether you're a weekend cruiser or offshore adventurer, this extension empowers your system to handle diverse conditions with confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003csection itemscope

Built with Garmin's renowned ruggedness, it resists corrosion, UV exposure, and vibration—essentials for marine environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gain 5 meters of extra length for optimal CCU placement at the helm or navigation station.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeamless Integration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plugs directly into your GHP™ 10 system without adapters or signal boosters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProven Durability:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-quality shielding prevents interference from onboard electronics or radios.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEasy Routing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flexible design simplifies cable runs through bulkheads and conduits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003eInstallation Tips for Flawless Performance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eGetting this cable set up is straightforward for DIY boaters or pros. Start by powering down your autopilot system. Disconnect the existing CCU cable from the ECU, attach this extension inline, and reconnect securely. Use cable ties and grommets to secure it along your boat's wiring paths, avoiding sharp bends or heat sources. Test the system on the water: engage autopilot modes like heading hold or track to verify responsiveness. Pro tip: Apply dielectric grease to connectors for extra waterproofing in saltwater conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003ch2\u003eReal-World Applications for Boaters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eWhether you're outfitting a center-console for offshore trolling or retrofitting a cruiser with advanced navigation, this cable unlocks versatile mounting options. Pair it with Garmin chartplotters for a fully integrated helm. Anglers appreciate the freedom to keep controls within arm's reach without rewiring the entire system. Sailors use it to position the CCU near the compass for precise heading data.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003eMaintenance and Longevity\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eKeep it performing like new with simple care: Inspect connections seasonally for wear, rinse with fresh water after saltwater exposure, and store excess length coiled loosely.

The unit's sealed components resist corrosion from saltwater spray, and its efficient power draw won't strain batteries during extended voyages. Whether retrofitting an older GHP-12 setup or building a new autopilot, this drive unit delivers the muscle needed for confident cruising.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003eInstallation Insights and Best Practices\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eMounting a hydraulic linear drive like this requires attention to alignment and fluid levels for optimal longevity. Position the cylinder parallel to the rudder post, ensuring the 12-inch stroke covers full deflection without binding. Use marine-grade hydraulic fluid to prevent foaming, and bleed the system thoroughly post-install to eliminate air pockets that could cause erratic steering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIntegrate with NMEA 2000 networks for seamless data sharing with chartplotters and instruments. Regular checks on ram seals and motor brushes keep it humming season after season, often outlasting the warranty period with proper care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003eReal Sailor Benefits Beyond the Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003ePicture this: crossing an ocean with autopilot holding steady through 25-knot winds, no constant helm tweaks needed. That's the peace of mind this unit provides.

The Garmin Split Collar 11mm Connector steps in as a smart, hassle-free solution for routing cables cleanly and securely.

Traditional grommets demand perfect alignment and large cuts that invite water ingress or weaken fiberglass. This split collar changes the game by opening up like a clamshell, allowing you to thread cables first, snap it shut around them, and mount it into a precise 11mm hole. The result? A watertight seal that protects against splashes, corrosion, and vibration from rough seas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003cp\u003eBuilt from rugged, UV-resistant materials, it withstands the harsh marine environment—salt spray, constant moisture, and temperature swings—while maintaining a low-profile, professional look.
