You shared your feedback, and we listened! We have upgraded and improved our Hydraulic Steering Filler Kit to include a quick disconnect adapter to eliminate the problems of installing the fill tube into the helm and then removing it once it is full. At Marine Tech, we’re always seeking to design products that match your needs exactly, so we’re grateful for the feedback we received and are excited for you to use this.

What’s Changed About the Filler Kit

You may be familiar with our Fill Tube (HA5438), which is designed to assist in bleeding and filling the system. After receiving lots of feedback about the difficulty of installing the fill tube into the helm and questions about how to disconnect the fill tube once it is full, we introduce a fill tube with a quick disconnect fitting. Our new quick connect fitting takes the guesswork out of bleeding and refilling your system. 

Inclusions & Applications

The Hydraulic Steering Filler Kit includes a brass helm adapter to prevent cross-threading and a quick disconnect fitting for a leak-free connection. It is used for all outboard, sterndrive, and inboard Seastar hydraulic helms. It makes the bleeding and filling process easier and simpler. This hydraulic steering filler kit helps to easily change the fluid in your boat while keeping things clean. Without this tool, bleeding could be very time-consuming and messy. Less time cleaning equals more time boating. 

Easy to Bleed System

This tube connects tightly between the fluid container and the 'reservoir fill opening' on the helm. It makes efficient filling, bleeding, or purging the steering system viable for almost any boater. 

Time-Efficient & Cost-Effective

This Marine Tech filler kit makes it a breeze to fill and bleed the steering system. Bleed all the air out of your steering system with no issues. Our SeaStar Hydraulic Steering Filler Kit is an easy DIY tool that works perfectly in bleeding your hydraulic system without having to pay someone to help you out, thereby saving you time and money.

Bleed System Back in Stock

The Marine Tech Hydraulic Steering Bleed System is an affordable and easy-to-use system for bleeding SeaStar, BayStar, and most Uflex Hydraulic Steering systems. If you’re looking to do the full job yourself, you won't want to miss out on this restock. It works on basic and complex steering systems, including autopilot, power assist, and multiple helms. No need to hook up to a battery; this system uses gravity instead of an electric pump to fill the helm. All fittings have leak-free quick disconnects for mess-free installation and storage.
