• 12V DC operation for standard electrical systems
• Compact, rugged construction for vibration resistance
• Plunger-style mechanism for positive shutoff
• Pre-tested for coil resistance and stroke length
• Easy installation with standard mounting bracket and terminal

Common Uses

• Replacing a failed fuel solenoid on diesel generator sets
• Restoring proper engine shutdown in tractors and construction equipment
• Maintaining fuel system integrity in marine diesel engines
• Repairing forklifts and other material handling equipment
