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 8M0082537 is an OEM Platinum Plus Generation II throttle and shift cable measuring 14 feet in length. Designed for Mercury, Mariner, and MerCruiser engines using Mercury 4000 series engine controls (2003 and newer), this cable delivers the precise, smooth operation expected from genuine Quicksilver rigging components.

Built with a layered technology construction, the cable features a polypropylene outer jacket that resists UV exposure and abrasion, while a lubricated core liner surrounds a stainless steel core to maintain flexibility and resist corrosion in demanding marine environments. Performance is rated to below 0°F, ensuring reliable operation in all weather conditions.

Key Features:

  • OEM Quicksilver Generation II connection type — compatible with Mercury 4000 series controls (2003 and up)
  • 14 feet in length — add 18" for outboard installations when measuring cable route
  • Polypropylene outer jacket is UV-resistant and abrasion-resistant
  • Lubricated core liner with stainless steel core resists corrosion and maintains smooth operation
  • Layered technology construction for long service life and consistent control feel
  • Rated for all weather conditions, including temperatures below 0°F
  • Installs with common tools — remove old cable and install replacement in reverse order

When to Replace: Replace throttle and shift cables when you notice excessive free play, stiffness at the control, or visible signs of wear such as chafing, kinking, broken components, or loose fittings. Throttle and shift cables cannot be repaired — only replaced. Note: Do not lubricate the cable core, and avoid tight or sharp bends during installation.

To confirm the correct cable length needed, read the length and part number printed on your existing cable, or measure the unobstructed route from the control to the engine throttle/shift attachment point and add 18" for outboard installations.

Great price and fast shipping! If your looking for quality brands at the best price available!!<br>

I paid for 2nd day shipping and 5 days later they were shipped out. So, I should receive my rotors in a full week from when I paid for 2 day shipping. I called customer service and they discounted the shipping rate to ground service. At least they were polite and helpful in the phone.

It was very fast and easy to get around. Good Job with you site.
