DOMETIC SEASTAR 60 Series Ball Joint – 38491
Dometic SeaStar 38491 is a marine control-cable ball joint used to connect a push-pull control cable to a throttle, shift, steering, governor, valve, or other control lever depending on the rigging application. Ball joints are commonly replaced when the original joint is worn, corroded, loose, or no longer holds the cable end securely.
This part is intended for 60 series / 6400 and 64 style control cables. It provides a pivoting connection so the cable end can follow the movement of the controlled lever without side-loading the cable. Correct series, thread size, and stud geometry must be matched to the existing control cable and attachment point before installation.
Because small control-linkage components can look similar across cable series, confirm the stamped cable series and the dimensions of the existing fitting before ordering. Replace only with a part that matches the original cable thread, stud size, and available travel clearance.
Main Features
- Marine control linkage part: Connects a compatible control cable to a moving lever or actuator.
- Pivoting ball-joint action: Allows the cable end to articulate as the control arm moves through its range of travel.
- Series-specific fit: Selected for 60 series / 6400 and 64 style control cables, helping avoid mismatch with the wrong cable family.
- Service replacement use: Useful when replacing worn, loose, bent, or corroded cable-end hardware.
- Compact installation: Designed for control boxes, engine linkages, and other tight mechanical-control locations.
