Fullriver DC40-12 12V 40Ah 275A is a marine battery with reinforced anti-vibration case for moorings and offshore use. Tolerates the typical daily cycles on a boat (engine start + night-time services such as lights, sonar, fridge) and holds voltage even when the hull is rolling in open sea.
Why this marine battery?
- Marine designbuilt for boat swell and vibration
- Dual functionstarts the engine and powers onboard services
- Sealed and safemaintenance-free even when the boat rolls
Where it fits: the Fullriver DC40-12 is one of our boat batteries, belongs to our Fullriver batteries and by capacity it sits among our 40Ah batteries.

Marine battery Fullriver DC40-12 DC 40Ah 275A 12V
The Fullriver DC40-12 marine battery offers 12 V, 40 Ah and 275 A of cold cranking current (EN) from the DC range with AGM technology, designed for motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. Measuring 198 × 166 × 174 mm, it is the direct replacement for boats fitted from the factory with a 40 Ah battery of this format.
In short: the Fullriver DC40-12 (40 Ah, 275 A, 198 × 166 × 174 mm). Verified equivalent alternatives: Fullriver DC38-12 and Fullriver DC50-12B.
- Sealed: no spills or gases in the locker.
- Resistant to humidity and salt air.
- AGM: faster recharging and better cycle resistance than a conventional battery.
- Ready for starting outboard and inboard engines.
What the Fullriver DC40-12 is for
The Fullriver DC40-12 is designed for motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. If it is your starter battery, run the services from a separate battery; if it is a service battery, avoid routinely discharging it beyond 50%. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 13.40 kg and M6 terminals.
The Fullriver DC40-12: DC range and AGM technology
The DC is the Fullriver range the DC40-12 belongs to: it shares the same construction and quality criteria with the rest of the series, and varies in capacity and format to suit each vehicle.
In an AGM battery the electrolyte is absorbed in glass-fibre separators: there is no free liquid, it cannot spill and it can be mounted at an angle. That construction lowers internal resistance, speeds up recharging and multiplies cycle life compared with a conventional battery.
Dimensions, polarity and mounting
It has external dimensions of 198 × 166 × 174 mm and weighs 13.40 kg. It uses M6 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. For a direct replacement, the current battery tray must accept these dimensions and the same terminal layout; otherwise adapters will be needed or the hold-down will change.
What Fullriver does differently
With its own plants and a catalogue focused on high-performance AGM, Fullriver is a familiar brand in power wheelchairs, boats and photovoltaic systems that need thousands of cycles. All the Fullriver batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
How to make it last longer
As a service battery, avoid routine discharges below 50% to extend its cycle life. Protect the terminals with dielectric grease and check the fixing: vibration and swell loosen connections.
Official warranty
The Fullriver DC40-12 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. Deep discharge from winter lay-up without charging is not covered.
When you get it and how to return it
Orders placed before 6:00 pm with the battery in stock ship the same day. Delivery in mainland Spain and Portugal takes 24-48 working hours; for the Balearic Islands and the rest of the European Union allow 3 to 5 working days. You have 14 days to return an unused battery; in mainland Spain and Portugal collection is free. We email you the tracking number as soon as the parcel ships.

Frequently asked questions
Is this battery AGM? What is it for?
Yes. The DC40-12 from Fullriver uses AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology: a sealed lead-acid battery where the electrolyte is absorbed in a glass-fibre mat. It withstands more charge/discharge cycles than a conventional one, handles heat better and is the required technology for boats with advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking. Expected lifespan: 5-8 years under normal conditions.
In what position can it be installed on the boat?
Being AGM, it is sealed and does not spill: it can be mounted tilted (never upside down) and copes well with vibration and wave impacts. Secure it firmly and keep the terminals away from water.
What are the measurements of the DC40-12 model?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 198×166×174 mm — also written as 198x166x174 mm — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your boat before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.
