Mercury – 2-4-C Marine Grease with Teflon | Multi-Purpose Lubricant | 14 oz | 8M0190469

Overview

Anyone who spends real time around boats learns quickly that smooth operation isn’t just about horsepower or hull design—it’s also about the little things staying moving, protected, and quiet. A steering cable that slides instead of sticking. A hinge that swings instead of groaning. Those subtle details matter, especially when you’re miles from the ramp and relying on your gear to work without complaint. Quicksilver 2-4-C Marine Grease with Teflon (8M0190469) is the kind of dependable, everyday marine grease seasoned boaters keep within arm’s reach. It’s a small tube with a big impact, offering peace of mind every time you service the parts that keep your boat responsive and reliable.

Key Features

• Premium general-use marine lubricant ideal for steering cables and moving hardware
• Lithium-based NLGI 2 formulation designed to perform even when mixed with water
• Enhanced with PTFE (Teflon) for added protection and reduced friction
• Built-in extreme pressure additives to handle tough marine loads
• Excellent resistance to oxidation, breakdown, and washout
• Fits all standard 14 oz grease guns
• Manufactured to meet Mercury Marine OEM specifications

Engine & Boat Compatibility

This versatile grease is suitable for:

• Mercury and Mariner outboards of all horsepower ranges
• MerCruiser sterndrives
• Steering and control systems on fishing boats, pontoons, runabouts, center consoles, and aluminum rigs
• Trailer components, chassis fittings, and general marine hardware

If it moves, rotates, or slides on your boat, this grease is likely part of its proper care.

Performance & Practical Benefits

Using high-quality marine grease isn’t about being fancy—it’s about preventing problems before they start. With the 2-4-C formula, you’ll notice:

• Smooth, tight, responsive steering thanks to consistent low-friction lubrication
• A protective barrier that keeps salt, moisture, and oxidation at bay
• Components that feel steady and secure, even under heavy use
• Better long-term protection for moving parts that otherwise wear down quietly
• A grease that stays put rather than thinning out or washing away

It’s the difference between a steering system that glides and one that fights you on the turns. Between throttle linkages that respond instantly and ones that hesitate. Reliable lubrication often goes unnoticed—but you definitely feel it when it’s missing.

Why Buy OEM

There are plenty of greases on the shelf, but few that carry Mercury’s long-proven reputation for marine durability. Choosing this OEM product means:

• Consistent, predictable performance across all marine environments
• A formulation built specifically for marine components—not repurposed automotive grease
• Long-term savings by reducing wear and premature replacement
• A tube that you know will work with your engine, trailer, and steering systems
• Advice you can stand behind when fellow boaters ask what they should be using

When you’re out on the water, there’s comfort in knowing every moving part is protected the way Mercury intended.
