BEP 65A PVC Coated Continuous Duty Solenoid

The BEP 65A PVC Coated Continuous Duty Solenoid is a heavy-duty electrical switching component designed for marine and automotive electrical systems where reliable remote switching of high-amperage loads is essential. Built by BEP Marine, a trusted name in marine electrical components, this solenoid enables a low-amperage control switch to safely manage high-current circuits—a critical capability for anyone running power-hungry equipment on a vessel or vehicle.

The unit delivers continuous duty switching at 65 amps at 12V DC, with an intermittent rating of 100 amps for up to 10 seconds—making it suitable for sustained operation in demanding marine environments. The PVC-coated steel case provides corrosion resistance against saltwater spray and moisture, critical for boats operating in coastal waters. Copper terminals with #10-32 thread signal connections and 5/16"-24 thread contact terminals ensure secure, low-resistance electrical connections. Pre-drilled bracket mounting holes (5/16" x 19/32", spaced 2-13/64" on centers) simplify installation in confined engine compartments or electrical enclosures. UL and CE certifications confirm compliance with North American and international safety standards.

This solenoid is ideal for boat owners needing to control high-current systems—battery isolators, windlasses, thruster motors, or bilge pump circuits—from a remote switch at the helm or cabin. The compact 4 x 3 x 7-inch footprint fits easily into engine rooms and electrical panels. Anglers, cruisers, and commercial operators rely on components like this to build systems that remain dependable across years of saltwater exposure and heavy seasonal use.
