Mercury – Proposition 65 Warning Label | Safety Decal | 8M0103454

Overview

This is the factory warning label Mercury uses to meet California Proposition 65 requirements on outboards forty horsepower and above. It’s the same notice you’ll see on new engines, meant to clearly communicate exposure information without cluttering the cowling. If an original label is damaged, missing, or unreadable, this restores the engine to proper compliance. Simple, clear, and exactly how Mercury intends it to appear.

Performance & Practical Benefits

Once installed, it just sits there doing its job quietly. The label stays flat, readable, and doesn’t draw unnecessary attention. There’s no impact on engine operation, just peace of mind knowing the boat meets required safety labeling standards. It keeps inspections simple and avoids questions later. It’s a small detail that prevents bigger headaches.

Why Buy OEM

Original equipment labels use the correct wording, sizing, and adhesive for long-term durability. You don’t have to worry about incorrect language or poor adhesion. OEM decals hold up better and look right on the engine. It’s the cleanest way to keep everything factory-correct.
