This critical component acts as a vital barrier, protecting sensitive internal gears and components from the harsh marine environment. Designed for durability and a precise fit, this seal is essential for preventing water intrusion, debris contamination, and lubricant leakage, all of which can lead to costly repairs and downtime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style-type: disc; margin: 15px 0; padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRobust Sealing Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Engineered to create a watertight and debris-resistant barrier, safeguarding your gear housing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Engine Life\u003c\/strong\u003e: By preventing contamination and lubricant loss, this seal helps maintain the integrity of your engine's drivetrain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; line-height: 1.8;\"\u003eThis OMC Gear Housing Seal is a fundamental part of maintaining the health of your marine propulsion system. Its primary role is to keep the lubricating oil within the gear housing and contaminants like water and dirt out. Without a reliable seal, water can mix with the gear oil, creating an abrasive sludge that rapidly degrades gears and bearings. Similarly, dirt and debris can cause significant wear and tear. This seal is engineered to withstand the demanding conditions of marine use, including varying water depths, temperature changes, and the constant stress of operation. Investing in a quality gear housing seal like this one is a proactive measure that can prevent catastrophic engine failure and extend the operational life of your boat's drivetrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; line-height: 1.8;\"\u003eApplications for this seal extend across a wide range of OMC sterndrive and outboard motor applications where a dependable gear housing seal is paramount. Whether you are performing routine maintenance or addressing a known leak, this component is crucial for ensuring your engine operates smoothly and efficiently. Its robust construction guarantees long-lasting protection, providing peace of mind for boaters who rely on their engines in all types of aquatic environments. Choosing the right seal means choosing reliability and performance for your vessel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n  \n        \u003csection style=\"margin:20px 0\"\u003e\n            \u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n            \u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse\"\u003e\n                \u003cthead\u003e\n                    \u003ctr\u003e\n                        \u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:2px solid #333;background-color:#f5f5f5\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n                        \u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:2px solid #333;background-color:#f5f5f5\"\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n                    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n                \u003c\/thead\u003e\n                \u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eMFG Number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003e18-2656\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eGear Housing Seal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eOMC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eRubber\/Metal Composite (typical for this type of seal)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eOuter Diameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eApprox. 3.75 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eInner Diameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eApprox. 2.75 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eThickness\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eApprox. 0.375 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;border-bottom:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eApprox. 0.2 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n            \u003c\/table\u003e\n        \u003c\/section\u003e\n        \n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Sierra International","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46389539963042,"sku":"DM-186410","price":323.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/3170\/5250\/files\/fs_186410_Web2.jpg?v=1765362806","url":"https:\/\/marinerswarehouse.com\/products\/yamaha-starter-186410","provider":"Mariners Warehouse Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
