MERCURY’S POWDER PAINT


ELECTRO-DEPOSITION PAINT (EDP)


IRRIDITE


XK360, A356 & MERCALLOY


Anti-Corrosion Protection


These outboards are sealed against corrosion by the high-tech MercFusion paint system, which features custom- designed, low-copper aluminium-silicon alloys; irridite metal prep and sealing; EDP priming; and a powder-paint top coat.


Mercury’s Sound Lab is where our engineers analyze and optimize sound quality in order to achieve world- class noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) levels.


Reasons to repower


A new Mercury FourStroke can re-energize your boat with improved acceleration, performance and manoeuvrability. The industry’s lightest 115 hp FourStroke weighs just 163 kilos, these FourStrokes are 18 kilos lighter than the prior generation of Mercury FourStrokes and 9 kilos lighter than the nearest competitor. They’re a great fit even on transoms that can’t handle the weight of older, heavier FourStrokes, and their sleek, low profiles make them easier to fish over and around.

Water is drawn into the unit through the intake grill by an impeller, driven directly by the engine driveshaft. The water is then forced at high pressure through an outlet nozzle, creating thrust that drives the boat forward. To obtain reverse, a gate lifts into position over the outlet re-directing the pressure stream in the opposite direction.


Because there is no lower unit extending below the hull, the jet drive permits passage over obstacles that would foul propeller-driven outboard boats.
