Sierra 18-0939-9 Upper Gearcase Dipstick Gasket - Replaces OMC 315189 - Pack of 2
The Sierra 18-0939-9 Upper Gearcase Dipstick Gasket is a replacement gasket for the upper gearcase dipstick opening on applicable outboard and sterndrive gearcases, sold as a pack of 2 for stocking spares or servicing multiple units. It is designed to seal the dipstick tube against the gearcase housing, helping prevent gear lubricant from seeping out around the dipstick during normal operation and while checking gearcase oil level. Sierra manufactures this gasket to meet or exceed the quality of the original equipment part it replaces, giving installers a reliable option when performing gearcase service, dipstick replacement, or general lower-unit maintenance. Because the gasket is a wear item that can harden, compress, or tear over time, replacing it whenever the dipstick is removed for service helps maintain a proper seal and avoid oil loss. The 18-0939-9 gasket is interchangeable with OMC part number 315189, making it a straightforward like-for-like replacement for technicians and boat owners who already have the OMC part number from their service manual or parts diagram. Its small size and low weight make it an easy, low-cost addition to a maintenance parts kit alongside other gearcase seals and gaskets.
