This gear lube provides maximum protection against:
• Water intrusion – advanced emulsifiers protect gears if water enters the gear housing
• Wear – tackifiers and pressure additives improve oil film adhesion and protect against excessive wear
• Horsepower loss ‑prevents horsepower loss and won’t break down when gears reach high temperatures
Recommended for use in Mercury Racing outboard gear cases including:
Sport Master
Torque Master
Fleet Master
VI SSM and IV
SSM and Mercury Racing sterndrive applications including
Dry Sump Six

Merc has 3 different gear lubes all made by 3 different oil formulators. Citgo is Merc premium blend---- next is Mercury High Performance and I have posted years ago is Bel Ray lower end gear lube, and then Mercury racing is by someone I can not say (expose) for certain reasons but lets just say its a Midwest company.
The Merc racing is their top gear oil and is not the same what you have pictured to the QS brand.

oOdd. I have been caught up in this chit mess for the last year. Put new drives on the Biotch, with a warranty, and decided to run merc lube for break in and for warranty period. Wanted the best Merc Racing had to offer, have been sold both of those shown here as the ultimate Merc Racing gear lube. What they call it is only a marketing deal, believe me it's all the real good chit, hate to tell the dealer that said that to me on here. Perhaps Merc Racing could speak up here and tell we little folk what the fock is what with their products that we all pay dearly for realy are.
