The Quicksilver brand delivers the exact level of quality as its parent brand, Mercury Marine. Quicksilver products are true original equipment manufacturer (OEM) products. In fact, the word quicksilver is another name for the element mercury. In other words, Mercury equals Quicksilver. The difference between the two brands is where they are sold. Mercury products are sold only by Mercury Marine dealerships. Quicksilver products are available in retail stores, independent marine dealerships, powersports dealerships and local convenience stores – just about everywhere marine and powersports parts, accessories and engine care products are found
