Product Details

The Quicksilver 8M0082545 is an OEM Platinum Plus Generation II throttle and shift cable measuring 22 feet in length. Engineered by Mercury Marine, this replacement cable is built to deliver smooth, precise throttle and shift control in even the most demanding marine environments, with performance rated down to below 0°F.

This cable features a layered technology construction that combines a stainless steel core with a lubricated core liner for corrosion resistance and lasting flexibility. The polypropylene outer jacket is UV and abrasion resistant, protecting the cable from sun exposure and wear over time. The patented hexagonal core shape minimizes contact with the liner for reduced friction and smoother operation.

Key Features:

  • Generation II (G2) connection type — compatible with Mercury Gen II controls
  • 22 feet in length
  • Polypropylene outer jacket resists UV rays and abrasion
  • Stainless steel core with 22 oil-tempered wires for enhanced compression strength and durability
  • Lubricated core liner maintains flexibility and resists the harsh marine environment
  • Patented hexagonal core shape minimizes liner contact for smooth, low-friction operation
  • Rated for performance in all weather conditions, down to below 0°F

Determining the Correct Cable Length: The easiest way to identify the correct replacement cable is to read the length and part number printed on your existing cable. Alternatively, measure the unobstructed cable route from the control to the engine throttle/shift attachment point. For outboard installations, add 18 inches to your measurement.

When to Replace Your Cable: Replace the throttle and shift cable when you notice excessive free play or stiffness at the control, or if you find chafed, broken, bent, or loose components. Throttle and shift cables cannot be repaired — only replaced. Do not lubricate the core, and avoid tight or sharp bends during installation.

Great prices and quick shipping! They kept me informed of when the item was shipped also. Couldn't be happier!

It was good

Ordering the product was easy and rep. Was helpful! The product was shipped fast and came a little messed up in package but complete to my knowledge.

Right price. Quick &amp; easy

Good price on parts, easy searching with Google Shopping, easy Checkout with Google Checkout. Wish the order shipped a day sooner. Called the 1-800 numnber, I get a little worried sometimes ordering car parts online - some sellers are bogus. But they answered the phone quickly and with a person in the US, not a machine or someone in another country.
