Oil has a way of sneaking along edges and finding its way into the lower cowl. This tray stops that from happening. It slides into position with a tight, steady feel and lets you work confidently, knowing stray drips are being caught before they become stains or odors. The drip tray keeps your hands cleaner, your cowl cleaner, and the entire process feels more controlled. You’re free to focus on doing the job right instead of worrying about chasing oil with towels afterward. The durable plastic resists warping, and it’s tough enough to handle years of seasonal service without cracking or weakening. It’s a simple tool, but when you use it once, you immediately understand why it makes such a difference. Why Buy OEM This isn’t just any plastic tray—it’s designed by the same engineers who designed the engines you service. It fits exactly the way it should, sits where it’s supposed to, and stays put as you work. An aftermarket tray might be close, but “close” can still mean spills, wasted time, and frustration. With this genuine Mercury Marine part, you know it’s built to last, built to fit, and built to make your maintenance easier every single time. When something works this well, it becomes a tool you keep nearby and rely on without second-guessing. FAQ Q1: Which Mercury engines does this drip tray fit?
