A good day on the water starts with a reliable outboard, and a solid rubber hub is key to keeping things running right. Designed specifically for Mercury 7.5 HP and 9.8 HP outboards, this OEM-quality rubber hub (426301) helps absorb impact, reducing wear and tear on your lower unit while keeping the propeller spinning efficiently.

When a hub starts to fail, performance takes a hit—vibrations increase, shifting gets rougher, and acceleration isn’t as crisp. Swapping out a worn hub is a simple fix that can prevent bigger headaches down the line. This Mercury rubber hub is built to handle the demands of the water, offering:

• Shock Absorption – Cushions the drivetrain against sudden jolts, helping to protect gears and propeller blades.
• Durable Rubber Construction – Designed to flex under pressure, extending the life of your prop system.
• Precise Fit for 7.5 & 9.8 HP Mercury Outboards – No guesswork, just a straightforward replacement.
• Smoother, Quieter Operation – Reduces vibration and helps maintain steady performance in all conditions.

Whether it’s time for routine maintenance or you’ve noticed signs of slippage, a fresh hub keeps your Mercury in peak shape. Swapping one out is quick and easy—get it done before the next trip so you can hit the throttle without hesitation./9
