Turn the key to Ignition to power the electrical system, then continue to Start to engage the starter solenoid — release and the switch springs back to Ignition. Turn back to Off to cut all power. Two keys are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilt from stamped brass with a 13\/16\" diameter long shaft, this switch mounts through panels up to 1-1\/8\" thick and connects via three screw terminals. The ignition circuit is rated at 15A at 12V DC; the solenoid circuit handles 30A at 12V DC for reliable starter engagement on single-engine installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 positions: Off – Ignition – Start (Start is momentary, spring-return to Ignition)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIgnition circuit: 15A at 12V DC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolenoid circuit: 30A at 12V DC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStamped brass construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e13\/16\" diameter long shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum panel thickness: 1-1\/8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree screw terminal electrical connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes two keys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatible Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-engine gasoline marine engine ignition and start circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutboard motor ignition panel installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInboard and sterndrive engine ignition switching\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine helm panels requiring a keyed Off\/Ignition\/Start switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12V DC marine electrical systems with separate ignition and solenoid circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement ignition switch for panels with 13\/16\" shaft cutouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eParts Desk Insights\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest use case:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sea-Dog Brass 3-Position Key Switch is the right ignition switch for single-engine installations where you want a traditional keyed Off\/Ignition\/Start sequence with a premium brass appearance. The 30A solenoid rating handles direct solenoid engagement on most single-engine marine applications, and the long shaft accommodates thicker panel materials up to 1-1\/8\". The brass construction pairs naturally with chrome and stainless hardware on finished helm panels. For multi-engine or accessory-heavy installations requiring a fourth position (accessory), a 4-position key switch may be more appropriate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelated Sea-Dog ignition switches:\u003c\/strong\u003e For a 4-position key switch with an accessory position, see the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/poly-4-position-key-switch-w-c-354-4203751\"\u003eSea-Dog 4-Position Key Switch\u003c\/a\u003e.
