Sierra 97012 Power Trim & Steering Fluid – 1 Quart, Volvo Penta Compatible
Sierra 97012 is a power trim and steering fluid specifically formulated for Volvo Penta marine engines — engineered to meet the demands of Volvo Penta power steering pumps and trim cylinders where a general-purpose hydraulic fluid may not provide adequate protection or performance. With superior rust and corrosion protection, oxidation resistance for extended service life, and engineered low-temperature performance, the 97012 keeps Volvo Penta hydraulic steering and power trim systems operating reliably across a wide range of conditions.
Key Features
- Volvo Penta Specific Formulation — Engineered for Volvo Penta power steering pumps and trim cylinders
- Superior Rust and Corrosion Protection — Guards internal components against corrosion in marine environments
- Oxidation Resistance — Resists fluid breakdown for longer service intervals
- Low-Temperature Performance — Engineered to maintain performance in cold-weather operating conditions
- Size: 1 Quart (946ml)
- Part Number: 97012 | SKU: 47-97012
Compatible Applications
- Volvo Penta marine engine power steering pumps
- Volvo Penta trim cylinders
- Volvo Penta hydraulic steering and power trim systems requiring manufacturer-specified fluid
- Verify compatibility with your specific Volvo Penta engine model and system before use — not all Volvo Penta systems use the same fluid specification
Parts Desk Insights
Best Use Case: The Sierra 97012 is the correct fluid when your Volvo Penta engine’s power steering or trim system specifies a dedicated power trim and steering fluid rather than a general-purpose hydraulic fluid. Using the wrong fluid in a Volvo Penta hydraulic system can cause seal degradation, pump wear, and system failure over time — the 97012 is formulated to meet Volvo Penta’s specific requirements and protect the seals and internal components in these systems. It’s a straightforward maintenance item: keep a quart on hand for top-offs and fluid changes on Volvo Penta-powered boats. Always verify the fluid specification in your Volvo Penta owner’s manual before adding fluid, as different Volvo Penta systems may have different requirements.
