Mercury High Performance Gear Lube 946mL
946mL bottle
Mercury High Performance Gear Lube is engineered to protect marine gearcases operating under high load, high RPM, and extreme conditions. Its advanced SAE 90 formula provides exceptional film strength, reducing gear wear, preventing pitting, and resisting water intrusion, corrosion, and foaming. Designed specifically for marine environments, it maintains viscosity across a wide temperature range for smoother shifting, quieter operation, and extended gearcase life.
Suitable for use in Mercury and Mariner outboards from 2 hp up to 400 hp, with the exception of V10 outboards which require a different lubrication specification. This gear lube is also recommended for most Mercury and Mariner 2-stroke and 4-stroke lower units, as well as many jet drives and sterndrives where SAE 90 High Performance Gear Lube is specified.
Typical gearcase capacities (approximate and model dependent):
- Small outboards (2–30 hp): up to 300 mL
- Mid-range outboards (40–90 hp): 450–700 mL
- Large outboards (115–200 hp): 900–1,000 mL
- High-horsepower outboards (225–400 hp): check your maual
- MerCruiser Alpha/Bravo sterndrives: 2 to 3.5L depending on model and bottle type
Always refer to your engine or drive owner’s manual for the exact capacity and specification, as fill volumes vary between gearcases and production years.
Benefits:
- Superior load-carrying protection for high-demand marine use
- Resists foaming, water intrusion, corrosion and gear pitting
- Maintains viscosity and film strength under extreme pressure
- Ensures smooth, reliable shifting and helps extend gearcase life
Disclaimer: Although Mercury High Performance Gear Lube is suitable for most Mercury and Mariner outboards from 2 to 400 hp, it is not recommended for Mercury V10 outboards or any engine requiring a specialty synthetic or racing gear lube. Always verify lubrication requirements and capacities with your Mercury dealer or consult the official service manual to ensure correct product selection for your specific engine model and serial number.
