Navigating wider beams or larger cockpits on your sailboat? The Raymarine 5-inch pushrod extension bridges the gap, ensuring your ST1000 or ST2000 tiller autopilot maintains precise control without compromise. Crafted for the demanding marine world, this accessory extends the drive unit's pushrod, adapting seamlessly to boats where the standard length falls short. Boaters often discover its value during upgrades or when scaling up from smaller vessels, keeping hands-free steering reliable across varying conditions.
Designed exclusively for Raymarine's ST1000 and ST2000 series tiller pilots, this extension slots in without modifications. It supports boats with beams that demand extra reach, typically from 20 to 35 feet, depending on your setup. The rugged construction mirrors Raymarine's hallmark durability—think corrosion-resistant materials that shrug off saltwater spray, UV exposure, and constant flexing.
Installing the 5-inch pushrod extension is straightforward, even for those new to marine tweaks. Here's how to do it right:
Pro tip: Check tiller pivot points for play before install to optimize performance. Most skippers complete this in under 30 minutes dockside.
From weekend racers tweaking for regattas to liveaboard sailors expanding horizons, this extension shines on mid-sized sloops and catamarans. It prevents overextension strain on the drive unit, preserving motor life during autopilot-heavy trips like island-hopping in the Caribbean or Great Lakes crossings.
These habits keep it functioning like new, extending the life of your entire tiller pilot system.
It lengthens the pushrod on ST1000 and ST2000 tiller autopilots, allowing precise steering on boats with wider beams or larger cockpits.
It's designed for ST1000 and ST2000 series tiller pilots only, ensuring a secure and reliable fit.
The extension adds exactly 5 inches to the standard pushrod length.
No, it's a simple bolt-on process using basic tools, typically done in 20-30 minutes without prior experience.
As an official Raymarine accessory, it aligns with their 2-year limited warranty when installed correctly.
Ideal for sailboats 20-35 feet with wider transoms where the standard pushrod lacks reach.
Rinse after use in saltwater, inspect joints regularly, and apply marine grease to pivots for longevity.
