Machined from alloy steel, it is engineered to meet or exceed original equipment quality so it can be trusted for routine gearcase maintenance, gear lube changes, or as a replacement when an existing drain or fill screw is stripped, corroded, or lost. The machined finish gives the threads a consistent, precise engagement in the gearcase housing, helping the screw seat properly and resist rounding during removal and reinstallation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis screw is designed to be used together with a matching plastic washer that provides the actual sealing surface against the gearcase housing; the washer is sold as its own separate part and is not included with the 18-2387 screw. Keeping the correct washer paired with this screw helps maintain a tight, leak-free seal at every gear lube service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSierra supplies this part as a single-count item, packaged for easy identification by its part number, making it simple for boat owners and marine technicians to keep a spare drain\/fill screw on hand for scheduled maintenance or emergency repairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sierra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18-2387\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExterior Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Machined\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lower Unit Drain\/Fill Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.03 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 808282239459\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 screw per pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Sierra 18-2387?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a lower unit drain\/fill screw made of alloy steel with a machined finish, used to seal the gearcase drain or fill hole on a marine lower unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the 18-2387 drain screw made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e Alloy steel with a machined exterior finish, giving the threads a precise, consistent fit in the gearcase housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Sierra 18-2387 weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sierra 18-2387 weighs 0.03 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the 18-2387 come with a sealing washer?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The 18-2387 screw does not include the plastic washer used with it; the washer that pairs with this drain screw is sold as a separate part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do I need a washer with this screw?\u003c\/strong\u003e The plastic washer used with the 18-2387 drain screw provides the sealing surface against the gearcase housing, so pairing a washer with the screw is necessary for a leak-free seal during gear lube service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many screws come in a package of the 18-2387?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sierra 18-2387 is packaged as a single screw, one count per unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Sierra 18-2387 an OEM-quality replacement?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the 18-2387 is manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment quality standards for a lower unit drain\/fill screw.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the UPC for the Sierra 18-2387?\u003c\/strong\u003e The UPC for the Sierra 18-2387 lower unit drain\/fill screw is 808282239459.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is this screw used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 18-2387 is used at the drain or fill point of a marine lower unit gearcase, typically during gear lube changes or as a replacement for a damaged screw.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat finish does the 18-2387 have?\u003c\/strong\u003e It has a machined alloy steel finish rather than a coated or plated surface.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sierra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48988106227931,"sku":"SIE-18-2387","price":7.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/SIE-18-2387_lg__70807.1558123732.500.750.jpg?v=1785188073","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/lower-unit-drain-fill-screw-omc-311598-fits-johnson-evinrude-outboard-gearcase-sierra-18-2387","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
