Sierra Serpentine Belt 18-18100, White, for Mercury V-135/150 DFI (1998-up) and V-175 DFI (2001-up) Outboards
The Sierra 18-18100 is a white serpentine belt built as a direct replacement for the accessory drive belt on Mercury V-135/150 DFI (1998-up) and V-175 DFI (2001-up) outboard engines. Serpentine belts run the engine's accessory drive system, and a worn, cracked, or glazed belt can cause slipping, squealing, or a complete loss of accessory drive, so keeping this belt in good condition is important for reliable operation on the water. This Sierra-branded belt is sized to match the original equipment fitment for the V-135/150 DFI and V-175 DFI engine applications, making it a straightforward swap for a boat owner or marine technician performing routine maintenance or replacing a failed belt.
The belt measures 13 inches long by 4 inches wide and is finished in white. It is packaged as a single belt (1 count) and ships at 0.26 pounds. Because it is a direct-fit replacement for the specified Mercury DFI outboard applications, no modification is required for installation. Keep a spare on hand for offshore or extended trips, since a snapped serpentine belt can leave an outboard without accessory drive function until it is replaced.
