Marine engines demand reliable, high-output starting power, particularly in harsh saltwater environments where electrical loads are variable and failure is not an option. The Exide EM960 is a dedicated marine start AGM battery engineered to deliver authoritative engine cranking performance for vessels ranging from basic open boats through to sophisticated multi-battery yacht installations.
The EM960 operates at 12V. Manufactured by Exide Technologies under their Starting AGM product group, the EM960 uses absorbent glass mat construction to immobilise the electrolyte within tightly compressed glass fibre separators. This sealed, maintenance-free design eliminates acid spillage risk, resists vibration damage inherent to marine use, and supports the low internal resistance necessary for sustained high-current discharge during engine start cycles.
The EM960 delivers 800A CCA (EN) and 960A MCA, confirming its suitability for high-compression marine engines in cold and temperate conditions. It occupies a Group 31 case measuring 330 × 173 × 240 mm, with a polarity 1 configuration and B00 hold-down type. Rated capacity is 100Ah at the C20 rate. No direct cross-references are listed; confirm fitment against vessel battery tray dimensions and engine manufacturer requirements. The AGM technology is compatible with start-stop capable charging systems – verify against product label." The EM960 is available as a single-unit supply. Related Exide marine and leisure AGM variants are listed separately on site. Covered by a 2-year manufacturer warranty against defect. "Delivery: pallet shipment, typically 3–5 working days within UK mainland. Contact PartsForMachines for delivery quote. 30-day returns.
The Exide start batteries are designed to supply high performance for engine start when installed alone for boats with basic equipment. They can also be used in engine-dedicated battery banks for the most sophisticated yachts. The batteries are usually charged after starting the engine, as the alternator quickly returns consumed power. AGM flat or orbital with VRLA venting • Superior starting power • Absolutely maintenance free • Suitable for long resting periods • Up to 50% faster recharging • High inclination • High vibration & tilt resistant • Internal gas recombination • No location constraints • Safe and clean
Key Feature:Designed for Leisure applications, balancing dependable starting with steady power delivery.

A. The Exide EM960 is rated at 800A CCA measured to the EN standard, indicating its ability to deliver sustained starting current at low temperatures without dropping below the minimum terminal voltage threshold.
A. The EM960 measures 330 mm in length, 173 mm in width, and 240 mm in height including terminals. It is housed in a BCI Group 31 case. Always verify these dimensions against your vessel's battery tray before ordering.
A. The EM960 uses Polarity 1, which places the positive terminal to the left when the battery is viewed from the terminal face. Confirm polarity compatibility with your vessel's cable run before installation.
A. The AGM construction of the EM960 is compatible with start-stop capable charging systems. However, suitability for a specific start-stop installation should be verified against the product label and the vessel or engine manufacturer's requirements.
A. Yes. Exide positions the EM960 for use both as a standalone starting battery on vessels with basic electrical equipment and as part of an engine-dedicated battery bank on more sophisticated yacht systems. It is not a dual-purpose or leisure battery.
A. The EM960 uses a B00 hold-down type. This refers to a base hold-down configuration. Verify that your battery mounting arrangement accommodates this before installation.
A. The EM960 has a rated capacity of 100Ah measured at the 20-hour (C20) discharge rate. No C5, C10, or C100 figures are published for this model.
A. The EM960 is covered by a 2-year manufacturer warranty. This covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal operating conditions. Retain proof of purchase and ensure the battery is installed and charged in accordance with Exide's guidelines to maintain warranty validity.
A. The EM960 is dispatched on a pallet due to its size and weight. Delivery to UK mainland addresses typically takes 3–5 working days. Contact PartsForMachines directly for a delivery quote before placing your order. A 30-day returns policy applies.
A. The EM960 carries an MCA rating of 960A. MCA is measured at 0°C rather than the −18°C used for CCA, and is the more commonly referenced cranking figure in marine battery specifications.
