Precision Steering for Larger Vessels

The Raymarine Type 2 Mechanical Linear Drive Short Stroke 24V is designed to deliver exceptional thrust and responsiveness for vessels up to 15,000kg (33,000lbs) displacement. This below-deck autopilot drive system provides powerful and efficient rudder control, ensuring smooth and accurate steering even in demanding marine conditions. With its fast hard-over times and quiet operation, this linear drive enhances the performance of your autopilot system, making long journeys easier and more comfortable.

Reliable Mechanical Performance

The mechanical linear drive is engineered for direct rudder movement, pushing the tiller arm or rudder quadrant with precision and strength. When the autopilot is disengaged, the electro-mechanical clutch releases effortlessly, allowing for smooth, unobstructed manual steering.

Seamless Integration with ACU-400

Designed to work in harmony with the Raymarine ACU-400 Autopilot Control Unit, this linear drive ensures reliable and efficient operation within a 24V DC system. The fixed end of the drive is securely attached to the vessel's structural members, while the dynamic end connects to the rudder stock or quadrant via an independent tiller arm. Installation may require additional fittings from the steering system manufacturer to ensure optimal performance.
