Quicksilver

<h3>Quicksilver: The Marine Enthusiast&apos;s Trusted OEM Brand</h3><p>For boaters who refuse to compromise on quality, <strong>Quicksilver</strong> has been the benchmark for marine parts, accessories, and engine care products since 1950. Based in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, Quicksilver operates as the parts and accessories brand of Mercury Marine — and that heritage is central to everything it makes. As the only marine aftermarket brand manufactured and recommended by an original-equipment manufacturer, Quicksilver brings factory-level engineering directly to boat owners, professional technicians, and weekend warriors alike.</p><p>What sets Quicksilver apart from generic aftermarket suppliers is its direct lineage to the engineers who designed the engines in the first place. Every component is engineered, tested, and manufactured with the same exacting standards as the original equipment it replaces. The result is a product line that fits right the first time and delivers the reliability boaters depend on — whether they&apos;re navigating calm inland lakes or pushing through demanding saltwater conditions.</p><p>Quicksilver&apos;s catalog spans more than 40,000 parts across 12 product lines, covering outboard and sterndrive engines from Mercury, Mariner, Yamaha, Honda, Evinrude, Johnson, Suzuki, and more. Among the most critical components in that lineup are Quicksilver Fuel Pumps, which are built to deliver factory fit and consistent fuel delivery across a wide range of outboard applications. Reliable fuel delivery is the foundation of engine performance, and Quicksilver&apos;s fuel system components are engineered to handle the demanding conditions of marine use — including compatibility with current fuel formulations.</p><p>Beyond fuel systems, Quicksilver is a go-to source for Propeller Parts &amp; Accessories that help boaters maintain and optimize their propulsion systems. From hub kits that protect both prop and gearcase to installation hardware and prop tools, these components are designed to the same tolerances as the drives they support. Proper propeller maintenance is one of the most impactful things a boat owner can do for performance, efficiency, and engine longevity — and Quicksilver makes that job straightforward.</p><p>The brand&apos;s commitment extends across lubricants, impellers, thermostats, anodes, fuel filters, oil filters, maintenance kits, and complete service packages — all engineered for the marine environment and tested to meet or exceed the standards of major engine manufacturers. Whether you&apos;re performing routine seasonal maintenance or tackling a more involved repair, Quicksilver provides the parts that restore your engine to peak operating condition.</p><ul style="list-style:disc"><li>OEM-backed engineering from Mercury Marine</li><li>Compatible with Mercury, Yamaha, Honda, Evinrude, Johnson, Suzuki, and Mariner engines</li><li>Over 40,000 parts spanning 12 product lines</li><li>Formulated and tested for freshwater and saltwater environments</li><li>Trusted by DIY boaters and professional marine technicians since 1950</li></ul><p>When reliability on the water is non-negotiable, Quicksilver delivers the peace of mind that only a true OEM-backed brand can provide.</p>

Product Details

The Quicksilver 8M0082547 is an OEM-quality Platinum Plus Generation II throttle and shift cable measuring 24 feet in length. Engineered by Mercury Marine for long-lasting reliability, this cable is built to deliver maximum performance across all weather conditions, including temperatures below 0°F. Its layered internal construction ensures smooth, precise throttle and shift operation in even the most demanding marine environments.

The cable features a polypropylene outer jacket that is both UV-resistant and abrasion-resistant, protecting the cable from sun exposure and physical wear. Inside, a lubricated core liner surrounds a stainless steel core, engineered to resist corrosion from harsh saltwater and freshwater conditions while maintaining flexibility. The stainless steel core incorporates a patented hexagonal shape that minimizes contact with the liner for reduced friction and smoother operation. 22 oil-tempered wires provide increased compression strength and long-term durability.

Key Features:

  • 24-foot length with Generation II end connections
  • Built for maximum performance in all weather conditions, rated to below 0°F
  • Polypropylene outer jacket — UV and abrasion resistant
  • Lubricated core liner surrounds stainless steel core for corrosion resistance and flexibility
  • Patented hexagonal core shape minimizes liner contact for smooth operation
  • 22 oil-tempered wires for increased compression strength and durability
  • OEM Quicksilver quality — direct replacement for worn or damaged cables

Sizing & Installation Tips: To determine the correct cable length, read the length and part number printed on the existing cable, or measure the unobstructed cable route from the control to the engine throttle/shift attachment point. For outboard installations, add 18 inches to your measurement. Install using common hand tools by removing the old cable and routing the new cable in reverse order. Do not lubricate the core. Avoid tight or sharp bends during installation.

Replace your throttle and shift cable when you notice excessive free play or stiffness at the control, or when you observe chafed, broken, bent, or loose components. Throttle and shift cables cannot be repaired — replacement is the only correct service action.

The shopping at autoplicity has been a very easy and smooth experience!! Phil @ mt.olive nc

Best price on line. I did call customer service for a question and was on hold for 30 minutes. Be prepared to wait.

duh

Good so far, but all that I've done is place the order and pay for the equipment.

Quick and easy

Thanks

I was shopping for a bed cover for my truck and found that autoplicity had the lowest price when I was ready to buy. After I placed the order, I got an email notifying me that my order was shipped and got a tracking number. Seamless transaction so far. Very happy.

So far so good.

Customer service was great. FEDEX Freight had damaged my order and they sent another one. I have no complaints and will do buisiness again with Autoplicity.

Best price I could find

Will comment when I recieve product
