Rule 1500 GPH Bilge Pump 12V 29-02

Rule 29-02 is a 12V electric bilge pump rated at 1500 GPH for marine bilge-water removal. It is designed for boats that need a higher-capacity compact bilge pump for removing nuisance water from the bilge area. This is a non-automatic bilge pump, so it should be wired to a manual switch, float switch, electronic switch, or compatible bilge control system depending on the installation.

Key Features

• Rule part number 29-02.
• 1500 GPH rated bilge pump capacity.
• 12V DC marine electrical operation.
• Non-automatic pump design.
• Commonly used with a separate float switch or manual bilge switch.
• Designed for bilge-water removal in marine applications.
• Compact submersible pump style for bilge mounting.
• Common outlet size for this pump class is 1-1/8″ hose.
• Snap-in strainer-style base supports easier pump removal for cleaning and service.
• Suitable for replacing an existing 12V Rule 1500 GPH pump where the pump size, outlet, wiring, and mounting footprint match.

Application Compatibility

This is not an engine-specific product. It is selected by the boats bilge layout, pump capacity requirement, voltage, outlet hose size, switch setup, and available mounting space.

Commonly used for:

• Small to mid-size boat bilge pump replacement.
• Auxiliary bilge pump installations.
• Higher-capacity bilge pump upgrades from smaller 500 / 800 / 1100 GPH pumps where wiring, hose size, and space allow.
• Manual or automatic bilge systems when paired with the correct switch setup.

Fitment & System Compatibility Notice

Confirm the boat has a 12V electrical system, correct fuse protection, suitable wiring size, proper hose routing, and the correct outlet hose size before ordering. If replacing an existing pump, match the old pumps GPH rating, voltage, outlet size, mounting base, and switch type before installation.

When This Part Needs Replacement

Replace the bilge pump when the motor no longer runs, output is weak, the pump runs intermittently, the housing is damaged, the impeller area is worn or clogged beyond normal service, or the pump can no longer move water reliably. If the pump does not activate automatically, test the float switch or control switch before replacing the pump.

Installation Notes

Install in the lowest practical bilge location where the pump can sit securely and remain accessible for cleaning. Use marine-grade wiring, correct fuse protection, proper heat-shrink connections, and a clean discharge hose route with no kinks or unnecessary restrictions. The pump should be mounted so the strainer can be removed for service.

Alternate / Superseded Part Numbers

The active listing reference for this pump is 29-02. Related Rule 1500 GPH pump references may vary by packaging, generation, or retail prefix, so match the pump by 12V voltage, 1500 GPH capacity, outlet size, and installation style before substituting.

Parts Desk Insight

The important check with bilge pumps is whether the customer needs a manual/non-automatic pump or a pump with built-in automatic switching. This 29-02 style pump is the pump body, so the switch setup should be confirmed before installation.
