About T & R Marine
T & R Marine is a marine accessories manufacturer focused on the hardware that connects an outboard motor to the boat it powers. The company describes its catalog as a complete line of marine accessories, and the brand's reputation rests on practical, purpose-built steering and mounting products for outboard owners, boat builders and repair shops.
Steering and Mounting Specialists
Where the helm meets the engine is a hard place for hardware to survive. Salt, moisture, vibration and constant load all work against cables, brackets and fasteners. T & R Marine's product line is built around that problem, using materials such as stainless steel and aluminum that stand up to a marine environment. The catalog includes steering link arms, ball joints, front-mount steering brackets and cable boots, as well as engine-specific kits for popular outboard families.
Cable-based connection kits and cable adapters are a core part of that range. Dual cable kits such as the OSM-3792 for Yamaha outboards and the OSM-3798 for Mercury and Suzuki outboards are designed for installations where two steering cables run down the same side of the boat. Units like these typically ship with the pieces needed for hook-up, including a steering tube with a grease fitting and o-ring, and use stainless steel and plated aluminum components for corrosion resistance.
For boats with larger engines or heavier loads, hydraulic steering hardware such as the OSM-3300 front mount steering bracket and the SBJ-0003 stainless steel 1/2 in. ball joint helps connect the engine to the helm with precise, repeatable response.
Transom Support and Engine Positioning
How an outboard sits on the transom affects trim, fuel efficiency, handling and the long-term health of the boat itself. Outboard motor transom pads and support plates from T & R Marine, including the TP-30 transom protector support plate, spread clamping loads and help protect the transom from crushing and wear. The brand also makes aluminum transom elevators, such as the TE-217, which lets a long-shaft engine be used on a short-shaft transom and is intended for clamp-on engines up to 40 horsepower. Cast aluminum transom wedges are also part of the brand's lineup for adjusting engine angle.
Shop Tools and Maintenance Items
Good steering performance depends on maintenance, and T & R Marine addresses that too. The brushes in its range include a steering tube cleaning brush for clearing old grease and debris from tilt tubes before reassembly. Other shop items include the PP-6600 prop puller and a hydraulic wrench, and the HTL-0020 aluminum half tilt lock for 20HP outboards rounds out the engine-support side of the catalog.
What to Consider When Choosing
- Engine fit: Steering kits are often matched to specific outboard makes, horsepower ranges and model years, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
- Cable layout: Same-side dual cable kits are different from other cable configurations, so check how your cables are routed.
- Transom thickness and shaft length: Elevators and support plates should match your transom dimensions and engine shaft length.
- Materials: Stainless steel and anodized or plated aluminum hold up better in saltwater use.
With products developed around real outboard installation and repair needs, T & R Marine remains a practical choice for owners who want steering and mounting hardware that fits properly and lasts.
