Mercury uses this fastener in multiple MerCruiser engine and drivetrain mounting assemblies including mounting brackets, transmission mounts, accessory-support brackets, and brace locations. Because the same part number appears across several different diagrams, fitment must be confirmed by the specific assembly and diagram item number — not engine family alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatible Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConfirm the exact assembly, diagram position, and item number before ordering.

The most common mix-up is ordering a 3\/8-16 screw because the head looks the same, or grabbing the 1-1\/2 in. 47651 because it was “close enough” in the parts bin. Neither will torque correctly in the original location. If you’re replacing a stripped mounting fastener and you still have the old screw, measure the thread diameter and length before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MERC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51324680339492,"sku":"47462","price":2.7,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/fe63bd78-98cc-4441-9fdb-d1a8188e67bb.png?v=1789424020","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/merc-49","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
