Quicksilver High-Performance Oil Filter (Mercury 35-881126K01) for MerCruiser V8

The Mercury 35-881126K01 (Quicksilver) is the ultimate oil filter for those who demand nothing short of the best for their high-power MerCruiser engine. This filter comes directly from Mercury Racing’s program – where the standards for durability and performance are exceptionally high. If you’ve invested in a high-horsepower V8 (such as a MerCruiser 525 EFI or 540 MAG), it makes sense to invest in the premium filter that can safeguard that power.

Features and benefits of the 881126K01:

• Built for Top-Tier Engines: High-performance engines often operate at the edge of their capabilities – high compression, high RPM, and high temperature. This filter has been proven under such conditions to ensure there’s no breakdown in filtration or drop in oil flow. Unlike a regular filter that might lose efficiency under extreme stress, the 881126K01 maintains stable function throughout the service interval
• Improved Seal Design: At prolonged high RPM, vibrations can loosen or damage the seal of a weaker filter. Mercury Racing accounted for this – the seal on this filter is reinforced and forms a perfect gasket to the block or remote adapter. This prevents any oil seeping or leaks even in the harshest operating conditions
• Developed by the Same Team as Your Engine: One reason this filter is so dependable is that it was developed by Mercury Racing – the same engineers who designed your engine were involved in setting the filter’s specs. That means an ideal synergy between filter and motor – like puzzle pieces made for each other
• Confidence During Extreme Driving: Whether you race competitively or just enjoy high-speed runs, the last thing you want to worry about at 6000 RPM is your oil filter. With the 881126K01, you can trust that the filter won’t be the weak link. Many racing teams use it for this very reason – it gives them the confidence to focus on driving, not on potential mechanical issues
• Genuine Replacement Part: High-performance parts are sometimes aftermarket, but not this one – it comes straight from Mercury. That means it’s approved for use even during the warranty period on applicable engine models. You get the very best without straying from the manufacturer’s recommendations

In summary, the Mercury/Quicksilver 881126K01 is a small but crucial part of the success formula for any high-performance marine engine. By using it, you ensure peace of mind and maximum power output – because you know the oil in your engine is being filtered with racing-level precision, even when you or your driver are giving it full throttle.
