Rule Industries

<h3>Rule Industries: The Gold Standard in Marine Water Management</h3><p><strong>Rule Industries</strong> has been synonymous with marine pump reliability since 1965. Founded when inventor Clinton Rule set out to solve the all-too-common problem of a leaky boat, the brand grew from a single innovative product into the world's most recognized name in submersible bilge pumps. Today, Rule operates under the Xylem family of water technology brands, but its identity — and its commitment to keeping vessels dry and boaters safe — remains as focused as ever.</p><p>For over five decades, Rule has set the industry benchmark in marine water management. Whether you're a weekend recreational boater, a tournament angler, or a commercial vessel operator, Rule's engineering philosophy is straightforward: build equipment that performs when it matters most. That reputation has earned Rule a place on the spec sheets of boat builders around the globe, with professionals and DIYers alike reaching for the Rule name when reliability is non-negotiable.</p><h3>Electric Bilge Pumps: Rule's Flagship Product</h3><p>The heart of the Rule lineup is its range of <a href="/6623-rule-industries-electric-bilge-pumps-200350">electric bilge pumps</a>. Available in both manual and automatic configurations, Rule bilge pumps are engineered to remove water from the lowest point of a boat's bilge efficiently and reliably. Automatic models feature water-sensing switches that activate the pump as needed, offering hands-free protection without draining the battery. Heavy-duty models incorporate stainless steel shafts, marine-grade blocked wiring, and ignition protection, while the Gold Series pumps are backed by a five-year guarantee — a testament to Rule's confidence in its own craftsmanship.</p><h3>Livewell &amp; Aerator Pumps for Serious Anglers</h3><p>Rule's expertise in water movement extends naturally into the fishing world. The brand's <a href="/6623-rule-industries-livewell-aerator-pumps-200624">livewell and aerator pumps</a> are engineered to circulate and oxygenate water in livewells and baitwells, keeping catch and live bait healthy throughout a long day on the water. Rule's Oxygenator Systems infuse air at the pump impeller to produce micro-fine bubbles that remain suspended longer, maximizing oxygen transfer to your bait or catch. The Tournament Series models feature a cartridge-style motor design that can be removed and replaced quickly — even mid-trip — keeping downtime to a minimum.</p><h3>Blowers, Plumbing &amp; Accessories</h3><p>Rule rounds out its marine offering with a suite of supporting products that complement its pump lineup. The brand's <a href="/6623-rule-industries-blowers-200176">bilge blowers</a> provide ventilation for engine compartments, bilges, galleys, and heads, featuring corrosion-resistant motor housings, front and rear shaft seals, and USCG 183.410 ignition-protection compliance. For system builders and installers, Rule also offers <a href="/6623-rule-industries-plumbing-parts-accessories-200786">plumbing parts and accessories</a> along with <a href="/6623-rule-industries-nylon-pipe-hose-fittings-200724">nylon pipe and hose fittings</a> — the connective tissue that ties a complete marine plumbing system together. With a catalog spanning over 135 products, Rule gives boaters everything they need to build, maintain, and upgrade their vessel's water management systems from a single trusted source.</p><h3>Why Boaters Trust Rule</h3><ul style="list-style:disc"><li>Over 60 years of continuous marine pump manufacturing since 1965</li><li>Submersible bilge pump designs trusted by boat builders from the factory</li><li>Automatic and manual models to suit every vessel type and size</li><li>Products engineered to meet rigorous commercial and recreational standards</li><li>Part of the Xylem global water technology portfolio</li><li>Wide availability through marine dealers across the US, Canada, Australia, UK, and beyond</li></ul>

Product Details

The Rule Industries Model 12 is a high-capacity, fully submersible non-automatic bilge pump delivering 2000 gallons per hour at 24 Volts DC. Engineered to commercial standards, this pump is built for both recreational and commercial marine vessels demanding dependable, heavy-duty bilge water removal.

This is a non-automatic (manual) model — it requires a separate panel switch for manual operation or a float switch for automatic activation (sold separately).

Key Features:

  • 2000 GPH pumping capacity — high-volume output for demanding bilge applications
  • Fully submersible design for reliable below-waterline installation
  • 24V DC operation with 4.0-amp draw and 7.5-amp recommended fuse
  • 1-1/8" (28.6mm) hose barb discharge outlet for standard marine plumbing
  • Run-dry capable — stainless steel shaft and centrifugal impeller will not burn out if run dry
  • Silent, vibration-free operation for reduced onboard noise
  • Anti-airlock protection ensures the pump primes and operates reliably
  • Easy-clean snap-lock strainer base — snaps off quickly for cleaning without tools
  • Marine-grade sealed wiring for moisture resistance and long-term durability
  • Rust and corrosion resistant construction suited for saltwater and freshwater environments
  • Ignition protected — safe for use in gasoline-powered vessels
  • CE and ISO 8849 certified
  • 3-year limited warranty

Specifications:

  • Voltage: 24V DC
  • Capacity: 2,000 GPH
  • Amp Draw: 4.0A
  • Fuse Size: 7.5A
  • Discharge Port: 1-1/8" (28.6mm)
  • Height: 6" (152mm)
  • Width: 4-1/4" (108mm)
  • Weight: 2.9 lbs (1.3 kg)

Note: Rated capacity is measured at open flow with no hose resistance. Real-world output decreases with discharge hose lift height — approximately 13% reduction per 3 feet of lift. A separate float switch or panel switch is required for operation.
