Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: What is a caged connecting rod bearing? A: It keeps rollers separated and evenly spaced inside the connecting rod for smoother rotation and reduced wear. This matches the caged design used in the connecting rod assembly.

Q: How do I confirm this bearing fits my Mercury outboard? A: Check your engine serial number and measure the existing connecting rod bearing if possible. Fitment can vary by model year and series.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
