Direct drive starters are known for their simplicity and torque strength, and this unit brings both to the table.

Epoxy-coated armatures shield wiring from the elements, ensuring long-term protection against moisture and corrosion. Whether you fish inland lakes or run tidal waters, this protection matters.

A genuine Mercury Marine part like the 8M6007316 is engineered with durability, precision, and marine endurance in mind. OEM starters last longer, engage more consistently, fit correctly the first time, and ultimately save you money and frustration.
