Wired DPDT (double pole, double throw), this switch lets a single rocker control two separate circuits or reverse polarity applications from one panel cutout, making it a common choice for bilge pumps, navigation light switching, trim tabs, and other dual-circuit marine accessories. The switch is rated 12 Volts at 20 Amps and is ignition protected, meaning it is safe to install in engine compartments and other areas where spark-producing devices must meet marine ignition protection standards. It is also water resistant, carrying an IP54 ingress protection rating, so it holds up to spray and damp helm environments better than a standard household rocker switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstruction is stamped brass switching hardware combined with an injection molded nylon and polycarbonate housing and actuator, giving the switch corrosion resistance at the contacts along with a durable, UV- and impact-resistant body. The rocker measures 13\/16 inch by 1-7\/16 inch at the panel cutout, a standard Contura profile that fits common marine switch panel layouts. At 0.088 pounds, it is a lightweight, drop-in component for new panel builds or for replacing a worn or failed rocker switch of the same style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e
