WP950 pendular steering pedestal
The WP950 bulkhead mounted pendular pedestal. The WP950 pedestal solution creates multiple steering positions with minimal space lost in the cockpit. The pedestal can be moved from port to starboard and can be fixed in different positions. When mounted on a bulkhead, the cockpit floor is kept free, and there is less risk of issues with water. The pedestal is completely made of high strength aluminium 6082 to keep a relatively low weight in a strong and stiff construction. To protect the pedestal against the tough environment, it’s alochromed (chromate conversion coating) and after that powder coated resulting in an long lasting finish.
The engagement mechanism is easy to operate by a handle switch pedestal position. The handle only has to be opened and will click in the next position when reached. The engagement plate can be positioned at any desired angle and can even be custom produced to your needs
All the bearings in the central shaft are made of stainless 316, and proper seals are fitted to guarantee no water will enter the boat. Different sprockets can be mounted on the central shaft.
The brake spinner and wheel are not included and should be ordered separately.
