Fulmen FC550 · Car battery 12V 55Ah 460A

Car battery Fulmen FC550 Standard 55Ah 460A 12V

The Fulmen FC550 from the Standard range delivers 55 Ah and 460 A of cold cranking current (EN) at 12 V: the usual specification for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in cars with a 242 × 175 × 190 mm format: same 55 Ah capacity and the positive terminal on the right.

In short: the Fulmen FC550 (55 Ah, 460 A, 242 × 175 × 190 mm, positive terminal on the right). It is a conventional battery for cars without Start-Stop: if yours has Start-Stop, it needs an EFB or AGM battery of the same size. Verified equivalent alternatives: Exide EC550 and Tudor TC550.

• Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.
• Reliable cold starts, even after weeks without driving.
• Direct replacement for the original battery in size and terminals.
• Original-equipment build quality without the dealership price.

What the Fulmen FC550 is for

The Fulmen FC550 covers the needs of passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system: reliable starting, stable voltage for the electronics and a service life of several years in daily use. Check that it matches your current battery in size and terminal position. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 13.30 kg and B13 hold-down.

Size, terminals and hold-down of the Fulmen FC550

It has external dimensions of 242 × 175 × 190 mm and weighs 13.30 kg. The positive terminal on the right decides which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes most buying mistakes, so check it before ordering. It uses a B13 hold-down, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Before replacing it, measure your current battery tray: if all three dimensions and the terminal positions match, the swap is direct and needs no adapters.

The Fulmen FC550: Standard range and conventional lead-acid technology

The FC550 is part of the Fulmen Standard range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.

Conventional lead-acid is the benchmark against which other technologies are compared: good cranking current, great tolerance to alternator charging and the best price per amp-hour.
