Momentary Both Sides — DPDT Illuminated Rocker for Precision Two-Direction Control
The Sea-Dog Contura DPDT Illuminated Rocker Switch with momentary action on both outer positions gives you precise, spring-return control over two circuits simultaneously. Rock left or right to momentarily close the circuit — release and the switch springs back to center off automatically. The red LED illuminates when either momentary position is active, giving you instant visual confirmation of switch state.
Double Pole, Double Throw (DPDT) configuration with 7 blade terminals makes this switch the right choice for reversing motor circuits where you need to switch both the positive and negative leads simultaneously — press and hold to run the motor in one direction, release to stop, press the other side to reverse. Built from injection-molded nylon and stamped brass with silver tin oxide contacts, it’s rated for the full range of marine environmental stresses including vibration, shock, moisture, and salt spray. UL1500 and ISO8846 ignition protection certification makes it safe for fuel vapor–prone installations.

Parts Desk Insights
Best use case: The Contura DPDT Momentary On/Off/Momentary On is the definitive trim tab and tilt/trim rocker — press and hold to move, release to stop, press the other side to reverse. The DPDT configuration handles both poles of the motor circuit simultaneously, and the momentary spring-return means there’s no risk of leaving the motor running if you release the switch. The 7-blade terminal count accommodates the full wiring complement for reversing motor circuits without additional relay hardware. The ignition protection certification is essential for engine compartment installations near fuel systems.
