Scepter Mercury Tank Bayonet Fuel Fitting – Metal (07497)
A direct-fit metal bayonet fuel fitting designed for Mercury outboard fuel tanks. Built to OEM specifications, this fitting uses o-ring construction to deliver a tight, leak-free seal — making it a reliable choice for replacing worn or damaged tank-side connectors on Mercury-compatible portable fuel systems.
Key Features
- Mercury bayonet style: Matches the factory tank fitting profile on Mercury-compatible portable fuel tanks for a secure, tool-free connection.
- Metal construction: More durable than plastic alternatives — resists fuel degradation and UV exposure over time.
- O-ring seal: Provides a leak-free connection at the tank interface, reducing the risk of fuel vapour or spillage.
- OEM-spec replacement: Built to original equipment specifications for a proper fit without modification.
- Customizable assemblies: Allows you to build or reconfigure fuel line assemblies to match existing connectors on your tank.

Parts Desk Insights
This fitting is the right call when a customer has a Mercury portable tank with a bayonet-style neck and needs to replace the tank-side connector — either because it's cracked, leaking, or they're building a custom fuel line assembly from scratch. The metal construction is worth the small price premium over plastic fittings, especially for customers who leave their tanks in the sun or use ethanol-blended fuel regularly. Confirm the tank connection style before ordering — Mercury tanks also use a clip-type fitting (see Scepter 05837 and Scepter 05793) which is not interchangeable with the bayonet style.
