Hydraulic steering ram identification for replacement glands/seals

[HarryMacI]

Hi,

I have a Quicksilver 500 Pilothouse with a Mariner 50 HP EFI outboard. I am trying to identify the hydraulic steering cylinder of the unit in photos attached in oder to replace the glands/seals? Unfortunately identifying features such as serial and model, have deteriorated. The helm wheel unit is 'Baystar HH4314' manufactured by Teleflex so it may have come as part of a kit.

Any information would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

As you are having to take it off any way a trip to your local hydraulic engine engine ing supplier seem next

Hydraulic techs sometimes seem to operate on a masonic basis, the quickest fix may be to remove the ram and give it to the local hydraulic specialist for seal replacement.

I think a lot of the Baystar systems are sold as complete packages, having the helm pump, boat type and engine may be enough. Otherwise a call and photo to Baystar?

Remove seals and take to local bearings supplier to match up.

I was given the company named Hypromarine who might be able to help, so contacted them with the details. As mentioned above I'll remove and try a hydraulic company somewhere in the North (Ireland).

Thanks for the input folks.

Any contact details for Baystar? appreciated

Cheers

Harry
