This is a universal 12-volt, 4-terminal solenoid with silver contacts in the classic tower-style #120 housing. Rated at 100 amps continuous and 400 amps peak, it handles the high-current switching jobs that smaller relays cannot — winch circuits, lift-kit pumps, light bars on golf cart accessory packs, 12V starter circuits on gas carts, and any other accessory that wants a real high-amp contactor instead of a relay.
Compatibility
- Any 12V DC circuit needing high-amperage switching
- Common golf cart applications: accessory power, gas-cart starter, light-bar packs, winch circuits
- Light electric vehicles, side-by-sides, ATVs, and utility carts running 12V accessories
- Replaces most generic 4-post #120 series 12V tower solenoids — verify your existing mounting holes match the tower spacing
Features & specs
- Voltage: 12V DC
- Continuous rating: 100 amps
- Peak rating: 400 amps
- Contact material: silver (longer life and lower voltage drop than copper under repeated cycling)
- Terminals: 4 (two large studs for the high-current circuit, two small studs for the coil)
- Housing: tower style, #120 series — fits the standard golf cart mounting pattern
Installation notes
Before installation, disconnect your battery pack. Wire the two large studs in series with the load (battery+ → solenoid → load → ground). Wire the small coil studs to your trigger circuit — one to your switched 12V trigger, one to ground (or whichever side the trigger circuit interrupts). Silver-contact solenoids are not polarity-sensitive on the large studs, but the coil itself can be — check your trigger circuit if the contactor refuses to close after install.
