Relays & Electrical Solenoids
Reliable Marine Relays & Electrical Solenoids for Safe Power Distribution
At The Outdoor Warehouse, we stock high-quality marine relays, contactors, and solenoids built to control power across your boat’s 12V and 24V systems. From lighting circuits and bilge pumps to trolling motors and charging systems, these components ensure consistent power flow and reliable switching performance in wet, high-vibration conditions.
Why Use Marine-Grade Relays & Solenoids
- Corrosion-resistant materials for saltwater and freshwater protection.
- Sealed housings prevent moisture ingress and short circuits.
- High current capacity for demanding loads like pumps and motors.
- OEM-compatible wiring configurations for easy replacement.
Marine Relay & Solenoid Types
Type | Application | Key Features |
---|---|---|
Power Relays | Lighting, accessories, bilge systems | Sealed 4-pin/5-pin designs, low amp control |
Continuous Duty Solenoids | Trolling motors, windlass, winches | High amp capacity, stainless hardware |
Momentary Solenoids | Trim tabs, lifts, switch control | Short-cycle actuation, corrosion protection |
Choosing the Right Electrical Relay or Solenoid
- Voltage: Match your system’s rating (12V or 24V DC).
- Duty cycle: Choose continuous-duty solenoids for motors; momentary for switches.
- Environment: Use sealed marine relays for exposed areas and high humidity zones.
- Load rating: Ensure amp capacity matches or exceeds device draw.
Pro Tip
Pair your marine relays with fuse blocks and battery management systems for safe, efficient electrical distribution throughout your vessel.
