What Is This Steering Wheel Used For?

The Ultraflex Antigua V60B and V61BR provide manual steering input when fitted to a compatible marine steering helm. They are suitable for new installations or as replacements for existing steering wheels with the same standard 19mm / 3/4in tapered hub fitting.

The two models share the same dimensions, construction and helm-shaft fitting. The choice between them is based on the required finish:

• The V60B provides an all-black appearance
• The V61BR provides a hydrocoated burl / briar-look rim with black spokes

The steering wheel does not determine the engine-power capacity of the steering system. The helm, mechanical steering cable or hydraulic steering components must remain within their individual manufacturer ratings.

What Is Included?

The Ultraflex Antigua steering wheel is supplied with:

• Selected V60B black or V61BR burl / briar-look steering wheel
• Exclusive alignment hub for a standard 3/4in tapered shaft
• Centre cap

Not included:

• Mechanical or hydraulic steering helm
• Mechanical steering cable
• Hydraulic steering components
• Dashboard mounting components for the steering helm

Which Steering Helms Are Compatible?

The Ultraflex Antigua V60B and V61BR are designed for compatible marine steering helms with a standard 19mm / 3/4in tapered steering-wheel shaft.

Before ordering, confirm:

• The helm has a standard 3/4in tapered shaft
• The dashboard and helm station provide clearance for the 350mm / 13.8in wheel diameter
• The installation provides clearance for the 85mm / 3.3in dish depth
• The existing helm shaft, shaft key and retaining hardware are serviceable
• The wheel can turn through the complete steering range without contacting nearby controls, instruments or the dashboard
• The selected finish matches the required helm-station appearance

Compatibility is determined by the helm-shaft dimensions and taper rather than the steering-system brand alone.

Which Model and Finish Options Are Available?

• V60B / 39189U / 4-V60-1: Black soft-grip rim with black spokes
• V61BR / 39191E / 4-V61-1: Hydrocoated burl / briar-look rim with black spokes

Both models have the same 350mm diameter, 85mm depth, three-spoke thermoplastic antishock construction, included alignment hub, included centre cap and standard 3/4in tapered fitting.

The stated difference between the two models is the rim finish. The V60B has a black soft-grip rim, while the V61BR has a hydrocoated decorative burl / briar-look rim.

Dimensions and Fitment

• Overall diameter: 350mm / 13.8in

• Number of spokes: Three
• Shape: Dished circular
• Hub type: Included alignment hub
• Centre cap: Included
• V60B rim colour: Black
• V60B spoke colour: Black
• V61BR rim finish: Hydrocoated burl / briar look
• V61BR spoke colour: Black
• Helm compatibility: Compatible standard marine helms with a 3/4in tapered shaft

Construction and Design

• Thermoplastic antishock grip and spoke construction
• Soft-touch grip
• Three-spoke composite design
• Dished circular profile
• V60B all-black finish
• V61BR hydrocoated burl / briar-look grip finish
• Black spokes on both models
• Exclusive alignment hub
• Centre cap included
• Designed for standard marine helm installations

The thermoplastic antishock material forms the grip and spokes into a rigid composite steering-wheel structure. The material provides a non-metallic wheel design with an integrated soft-touch gripping surface.

The V60B uses a black soft-grip rim and black spokes for an all-black appearance. The V61BR uses the same basic steering-wheel construction with a hydrocoated burl / briar-look rim and black spokes.

The included alignment hub is designed to help position the steering wheel consistently on a compatible tapered helm shaft. Correct installation still depends on proper shaft-key engagement and secure retaining hardware.

Standards and Certification

Ultraflex lists the Antigua V60-V61 range against the following marine steering standards and requirements:

• EN 28848
• EN 29775
• ABYC P22
• UKCA requirements

The manufacturer lists the following certifications and markings:

• CE
• NMMA
• UKCA

Installation must still comply with the instructions and operating limits supplied with the steering helm and the complete steering system.

Installation and Use

Confirm that the steering helm has a standard 19mm / 3/4in tapered shaft before installation. The wheel must seat correctly on the taper without movement between the hub and shaft.

Secure the wheel using the shaft key and retaining hardware specified by the helm manufacturer. Do not force an incompatible hub onto the shaft or modify the taper to make it fit.

After installation, turn the wheel through the steering system's complete range and check that:

• The wheel does not contact the dashboard, instruments or controls
• The helm operates smoothly through its full travel
• The wheel remains securely seated on the tapered shaft
• There is no abnormal movement between the hub and helm shaft
• The shaft key and retaining hardware are correctly installed
• The centre cap is correctly secured
• The steering system reaches both limits without binding

Marine steering is a safety-critical system. Worn shaft keys, retaining nuts, helm shafts or other steering components must be replaced before the boat is used.
