The Honda 96211-09000 Steel Ball (#9) (9/32) is a genuine OEM component designed for BF115, BF135, BF140, and BF150 outboard motors. Always confirm your motor's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda supersedes parts at specific serial breaks and the (9/32) size qualifier must match your application.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Specification — manufactured to Honda's exact dimensional tolerances for the #9 (9/32) ball position, ensuring the correct size is installed every time
- Exact-Size Variant — the (9/32) qualifier identifies this as a specific size within Honda's steel ball catalogue; confirm this size matches your motor's requirement before installing
- Broad Outboard Fitment — listed for BF115, BF135, BF140, and BF150 Honda outboard motors
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda outboard parts can vary by production serial range; check your motor's serial number against the compatibility table to confirm this is the correct part for your unit
Steel balls serve as precision load-bearing or detent elements within mechanical assemblies in outboard motors — functions that depend entirely on the ball being the correct diameter and grade. In Honda's BF-series outboards, a ball of the wrong size or inferior grade will not seat correctly, leading to improper retention, excessive wear on mating surfaces, or loss of the mechanical function the assembly is designed to perform. Replacing a worn or missing ball with the correct OEM part restores the intended fit and ensures the surrounding components operate as Honda designed.
