About This Part
Genuine Mercury / Quicksilver 12-22753 is an OEM 5/16-inch flat washer used across a wide range of Mercury outboard and MerCruiser engine, drive, and mounting assemblies. Mercury parts diagrams show it in several roles including crankcase-to-cylinder-block screw hardware, clamp-stud mounting assemblies, and shift-cable screw hardware on selected Mercury Racing applications. Because 22753 is a shared hardware number rather than a single-assembly part, the correct quantity and pairing hardware must be confirmed from the parts diagram for the specific engine or drive being serviced — the same washer appears in very different contexts across the Mercury product range.
Compatible Applications
- Selected Mercury inline and V-series outboards — crankcase-to-cylinder-block screw hardware (typically 25–26 washers per assembly)
- Selected Mercury outboard driveshaft housing / lower-mount assemblies — clamp-stud hardware (typically 4 per assembly)
- Selected Mercury Racing applications — shift-cable screw hardware (typically 3 per assembly)
- Selected legacy MerCruiser engine and drive assemblies — various hardware positions by diagram
Confirm the required quantity and exact diagram position by engine or drive model and serial number. The same part number appears in multiple Mercury assemblies with different quantities and mating hardware.
Hardware Pairings by Application
- Crankcase-to-cylinder-block: Used with nut 29250
- Clamp-stud assemblies: Used with nut 82670911
- Shift-cable / 5/16-24 hardware: Used with nut 35814 or 82670911
Torque to the service-manual specification for the mating fastener in the specific assembly — do not apply a generic value based on washer size.
When to Replace
Replace this washer if it shows any of the following:
- Corrosion or surface pitting
- Bending or distortion
- Deep scoring on the bearing surface
- Wear or enlargement around the center hole
- Damage during disassembly
- Missing from a factory hardware stack
Installation Notes
Install 22753 in the exact position and quantity shown in the Mercury parts diagram for the assembly being serviced. Clean mating surfaces before installation. Confirm the mating nut or fastener for your specific application from the diagram and torque to the Mercury service manual specification for that assembly.
Cross-Reference Part Numbers

Parts Desk Insight
22753 is a shared 5/16-inch Mercury flat washer that appears in crankcase, mounting, and linkage hardware across a wide range of Mercury and MerCruiser products. The most common issue is underordering — crankcase assemblies can require 25 or more of these washers, so check the diagram carefully before ordering a single replacement. Because the same part number is used in very different assembly contexts, matching by OEM part number and diagram position is the only reliable approach. When servicing the crankcase or clamp-stud hardware, replace all washers in the stack rather than reusing originals that may be distorted or corroded.
