Serial Number Fitment Notice
Confirm fitment by engine serial number, assembly diagram, bracket location, thread size, bolt length, and required fastener grade before ordering. MerCruiser engines often use similar-looking screws in different lengths, thread pitches, coatings, and strength ratings depending on the accessory bracket, pump housing, pulley, alternator mount, or engine block location.
When This Part Needs Replacement
Replace this screw if the original fastener is missing, seized, corroded, stretched, rounded, cross-threaded, or no longer clamps the component securely. It should also be replaced if incorrect hardware was previously installed, especially on accessory brackets, pump mounts, pulleys, and engine-mounted components exposed to vibration and heat.
Installation Notes
Verify the mounting hole threads are clean and undamaged before installation. Compare the removed fastener to the replacement screw for thread pitch, length, head style, and shoulder/contact area. Use the correct Mercury service manual torque specification for the exact assembly location. Do not substitute a longer screw in blind holes, as it can bottom out before the component is properly clamped.
Alternate/Superseded Part Numbers

- 34353 — Mercury/MerCruiser base part number
- F1867 — earlier factory reference; verify by diagram and application
- F2202 — earlier factory reference; verify by diagram and application
Parts Desk Insight
Small engine fasteners matter because length, thread pitch, coating, and strength rating affect how the part clamps under heat and vibration. For brackets, pulleys, alternators, and seawater pump mounts, matching the factory hardware helps prevent loose components, misalignment, broken brackets, and repeat service issues.
