Looking for constalation wire in USA

Hello, we need to replace the constallation wire of our 6mm stainless steel wires on our steering system, but even Google can't help.

The constallation wire is made of plastic outside and metal inside.


We are in St.Martin and could order it from the US.

Anybody has advice for us?

I just googled Constellation cable and came up with a Lewmar product. Here in Australia the first two retailers that showed up are “BLA marine ” and C.H.Smith marine.

Correct, and lewmars website showed a dealer in the USA called boatowners warehouse bow.com and they said, they have to special order it.
Strange. Special.order.

Is it the conduit you need to replace, or the cable inside it (or maybe both)?

For the conduit, you could try MauriPro, although I would caution you to get details from them on stock and shipping, they seem to frequently drop ship and don't actually have product.
