Jefa WP150 cable steering pedestals

With the 150 series pedestal Jefa Steering introduces a new style in modern pedestal design. The important accessories like the guardrail, engine control and the compass binnacle are integrated into the concept. Due to the innovative design a minimum of mountings bolts are visible on the exterior of the pedestal. The integrated compass offers easy and clear readings without the need of a separate binnacle. The 25 mm diameter stainless steel 316 guardrail is firmly attached to the pedestal offering the best protection for the compass and pedestal combined with a strong support when moving around in the cockpit. It also provides a strong mounting platform for a variety of instrument housings. The integrated powerful and progressive friction brake can be operated without putting one's hand through the wheel.

The 150 series pedestal concept has big advantages over existing similar concepts:

All pedestal parts are machined from seawater resistant solid Aluminium 6082. As this material is also used for rudder shafts, it will not corrode, even when it's exposed by a surface damage. No casted aluminium parts are used in this pedestal.
The robust powder coated aluminium base has no mounting holes for pedestal bolts as these are integrated in the pedestal deck flange. This avoids multiple weak points for damage with the accompanying corrosion and possible leaking.
The input socket has no exterior mounting bolts for a stylish look and avoiding multiple potential corrosion and damage points.
The robust guardrail is mounted directly to the pedestal avoiding a top plate with mounting bolts with potential corrosion points.
The compass binnacle is integrated in the pedestal design.
The steering shaft is sealed by the Jefa developed PUR seal. Normal industry seals use steel reinforcement rings in the rubber housing. As the standard industry rubber will start to crack due to the UV in the sunlight, the steel rings will corrode and destroy the seal letting water in the steering shaft bearings with disastrous effects. The PUR seal will guarantee an life long sealing.

The 150 series pedestal is available as WP150 for wire steering, RP150 for rack and pinion steering and TS150 for transmission steering. All pedestals are CE approved.

The WP150 is the cable steering version of the 150 series pedestal. The 25 mm steering shaft is equipped with the standard international 1" taper to fit all Jefa wheels up to 1500 mm diameter. The steering shaft has 2 ball bearings at the front of the pedestal and one ball bearing at the aft side of the pedestal.
The pedestal can be equipped with multiple sprockets to match the turns starboard to port as specified. Please look at the table for choosing the the sprocket size in relation to the quadrant radius.
The WP150 pedestal can be used for open wire systems with our cross wire and parallel wire idlers. These idlers have large base plates for a a firm clamping of the deck between the deck flange of the pedestal and the base plate. The idlers are mounted with pedestal mounting studs, so no additional mounting bolts are necessary.
The WP150 pedestal can be used for conduit cable systems by fitting the WP150 conduit plate underneath the pedestal.

The Jefa teak cockpit table is 350 mm wide and 650 mm long when folded in, and 700 mm wide and 650 mm long when folded out. The table edges are made of solid teak and the core is made of 20 mm plywood with teak veneer. The blades are joined with stainless steel hinges for long durability. The cockpit tables are always delivered unvarnished to allow the owner to use their own teak protection system like teak oil, single of twin component varnish. It is not advisable to leave the table unvarnished as it will become dirty after a short use. Please click on the pictures for a larger view.

The table mounting kit consists of 2 special table hinge studs on a bracket which is mounted on the tube of the pedestal which allows the table hinges to be mounted in different heights depending on the pedestal height and the cockpit bench height. The mounting kit has a quick mounting and dismounting system: By lifting the table 45 degrees up, a special flatted part on the hinge pin allows the table to be lifted out and in easily. The attachment of the U-bend on the pedestal is adjustable to make sure the table can be set horizontal after installation. A hold-down kit is also included. The table mounting kit for an existing table comprises all parts except for the table blades and blade hinges.
