Crafted from high-quality carbon fiber and polished 316L stainless steel, this 13.5-inch steering wheel is engineered to withstand harsh marine environments while providing long-lasting performance. Its unified investment casting ensures exceptional strength, exceeding industry standards such as ABYC P-22 and ISO 8848, making it a reliable choice for demanding boating conditions. The mirror-like finish enhances its visual appeal, complementing any helm decor while reducing maintenance needs due to its superior corrosion resistance. The wheel's slightly thicker rim, at 11\/8 inches, reduces hand fatigue during extended use, delivering all-day comfort for the operator. The UV-resistant black Santoprene finger grip extends around the rim, providing a sure, solid hold in all weather conditions. Finger grips integrated into the top of the rim allow for a secure grasp, while the slightly extended Santoprene under the spoke junction offers an ergonomic, smooth surface. The Primus wheel is available in three spoke configurations—slotted with decorative Santoprene inserts, open slots, or solid—each featuring edges with a slight radius for enhanced comfort without sacrificing aesthetic sharpness. An optional stainless steel control knob, measuring 13.5 inches, is designed for easy installation on a spoke 3\/4 inch from the rim edge, ensuring it does not interfere with controls or the helm's space. Constructed with glass ball bearings, the knob spins freely and resists corrosion, providing a lifetime of smooth operation. The wheel incorporates a standard 3\/4 inch tapered hub compatible with most steering systems and includes a durable stainless steel center nut for secure attachment.
