Application and Buying Notes

Before buying, confirm the part number 24612BX and check that your system is 12V, because the solenoid is specified for 12V operation. If the vehicle or machine uses a different control voltage, this unit is not a match.

The current ratings are the key guide here: 100A continuous, 400A inrush, and 100A make and break. Those figures are relevant when you are replacing a solenoid in a circuit that must handle a sustained load, not just a brief switching event.

Physically, the unit is 65 x 47 x 76mm with 8mm x 15mm mounting holes on 56mm centres. Measure the available space, bracket shape, and hole spacing carefully, especially where the solenoid sits close to other electrical components or panels.

A one year warranty is included, but correct selection still comes down to matching the voltage, current rating, terminal type, and mounting dimensions to the existing application. If you are unsure, compare the old unit directly before fitting the replacement.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number 24612BX helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

Cole Hersee Continuous Duty Solenoid 12V 100A. Part number 24612BX should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. Listed output rating is 100. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number 24612BX, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a solenoid switch in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 and output 100 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Where no verified application list is available, the part number, mounting details, connector style, and published specifications should be used as the primary selection criteria.

In the absence of a verified fitment list, the safest approach is to compare the removed unit directly with the listed product details. That includes checking the housing style, pulley layout, regulator arrangement, and any visible identification numbers before supply is approved.

The listed warranty is One Year. Warranty terms should be considered alongside correct application and part identification, as warranty does not replace fitment confirmation.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment by matching the part number 24612BX, the 12V specification, the 100A continuous rating, and the mounting and terminal details before ordering.
