Mercury Marine has created its own range of specialised oils and lubricants, which are now available exclusively through authorised Mercury dealerships across Australia and New Zealand.
Boats operate in a harsh environment and marine engines are routinely used for extended periods at wide-open throttle (up to 6400rpm) in saltwater and full UV sunlight.
They are then stored during the off season -- in some cases without any use.
To deal with all that, Mercury oils and lubricants are specifically formulated for the unique needs of marine engines and rigorously tested to meet very high standards.
So, you can get the most out of your engine while having total peace of mind that your engine is being protected.
"No matter which outboard or sterndrive you have, the reality is it’s a high-performance engine and therefore needs specialised lubricants," said Paul McLean, Mercury Marine’s Aftermarket and Accessories Director.
"There are lots of so-called marine oils on the market, but Mercury Precision Lubricants are blended specifically for the marine market. Our entire focus is the marine industry -- so these are the lubricants you can trust.
"They will protect your engine and ensure the best performance."
The full range of Mercury Precision Lubricants covers 11 specific categories:
