Sea-Dog Contura Rocker Switch On-Off-On 12V 20A
Sea-Dog Contura Rocker Switch On-Off-On 12V 20A — Product description
The Sea-Dog Contura rocker switch gives you on-off-on control at the helm in a sealed, illuminated package. Single pole double throw, rated 20 amps at 12 volts DC, with a red pilot light and an IP66 housing that shrugs off spray and washdown.
The Sea-Dog Contura rocker switch handles on-off-on switching at the helm, and it's built for the damp, salty spots where a cheap switch quits on you. It's a single pole double throw switch with a center-off position, so you can run a circuit one way, shut it off, or throw it the other way from a single paddle. Rated 20 amps at 12 volts DC.
The red pilot light tells you at a glance when the circuit's live, which is handy on a dark dash. Four blade terminals keep the wiring straightforward. The housing is molded from brass, nylon and polycarbonate, and it carries an IP66 rating, so spray and washdown water stay out. It's happy anywhere from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius, which covers just about any climate you'd take a boat into.
Good fit for bilge blowers, nav lights, wipers, or any two-direction load you want to run from one switch. It drops into a standard Contura cutout, so if you're refitting a panel these keep a clean, consistent look across the dash.

Frequently asked questions
What does on-off-on mean on this switch?
It's a single pole double throw switch with three positions. Center is off. Flip it up to power the circuit one way, down to power it the other way. Handy for reversible loads or picking between two feeds.
How much current can it handle?
It's rated for 20 amps at 12 volts DC. That covers most helm circuits like blowers, wipers, and lighting.
Is it sealed against water?
Yes. It carries an IP66 rating, so it stands up to spray and washdown at the helm. The housing is brass, nylon and polycarbonate.
What lights up on the switch?
A red pilot light. When the circuit's live it glows red, so you can read switch status on a dark dash.
How does it wire in?
Through four blade terminals on the back. It drops into a standard Contura rocker cutout.
