Deep-cycle traction applications demand a battery that can sustain repeated discharge and recharge cycles under heavy load without degradation of electrolyte or risk of spillage. The Sonnenschein GF06240V is a 6V, 270Ah gel traction block from the GF-V (dryfit? traction block) range, engineered specifically for demanding industrial motive power environments where reliability and minimal maintenance intervention are essential.
Built on Sonnenschein's established dryfit? VRLA technology, the GF06240V immobilises the electrolyte within a gel matrix, eliminating free liquid entirely. The valve-regulated construction manages internal gas recombination, removing the need for topping up throughout the battery's entire service life. The GF-V range is rated to 700 cycles, making it a practical choice for sustained daily operational duty." The GF06240V measures 311mm (L) × 181.1mm (W) × 358mm (H) and weighs 48kg. It features a Type 1 terminal with B00 hold-down configuration and standard polarity (code 0). No direct cross-reference codes are supplied; customers should verify fitment against original equipment specifications before ordering. Suitability for start-stop applications is not confirmed – refer to the product label. "This product is available within a broader GF-V range. Related SKUs include GF06160V1 (6V 160Ah), GF06180V (6V 180Ah), and GF12160V (12V 160Ah), providing options across voltage and capacity requirements for fleet and equipment standardisation.
The GF06240V is supplied with a 1-year warranty. Delivery: pallet shipment, typically 3–5 working days within UK mainland. Contact PartsForMachines for delivery quote. 30-day returns.
Range GF-V (dryfit traction block) The GF-V range of blocks is suitable for heavy industrial use. This includes applications for automated guided vehicles, mobile elevating work platforms, cleaning machines, walk behind pallet trucks, electric cars, and buses.
Key Feature:Suited for marine and RV applications, supporting engine cranking and house loads for regular use.
