Marine electrical systems place unique demands on battery technology, requiring reliable cranking power alongside resilience to vibration, moisture and deep discharge cycles. The Optima Blue Top 8006-252 is a 12V 50Ah AGM starter battery engineered specifically for boats, personal watercraft and recreational vehicles where high-draw electronics and trolling motors create conditions that defeat conventional flooded batteries.
Optima's proprietary Spiral cell AGM construction winds pure lead plates into a tight cylindrical cell, eliminating free electrolyte and producing a battery that is both spill-proof and highly resistant to vibration damage. The absorbed glass mat design maintains close plate separation under load, sustaining the 815A cold cranking output that defines the 8006-252's starting capability even after repeated deep-discharge events.
The 8006-252 measures 254mm × 175mm – 200mm (L × W × H) and weighs 18.4kg. It is fitted with dual SAE post and stud terminals (DT terminal type) with standard polarity (positive right, configuration code 1) and uses a B00 hold-down system. No direct cross-reference codes are listed; fitment should be confirmed against vehicle manufacturer specifications. The battery carries a note that the underlying AGM technology supports start-stop applications – verify compatibility against the product label before installation." No variant configurations are available for this SKU. This battery is supplied with a 2-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal operating conditions. "Standard delivery: 1–3 working days within UK mainland. 30-day returns.
The OPTIMA BLUETOP high-performance AGM Battery is the perfect marine battery for boats with trolling motors and extensive electronic systems and works well with recreational vehicles with comfort features that tend to drain batteries quickly.
Key Feature:Suited for marine and RV applications, supporting engine cranking and house loads for regular use.

A. The Optima Blue Top 8006-252 (SKU: BTSLIM4.2) is rated at 815A CCA measured to EN standard, providing strong, reliable engine starting performance in cold conditions.
A. The battery measures 254mm in length, 175mm in width and 200mm in height including the terminals. It weighs 18.4kg.
A. The 8006-252 uses dual SAE post and stud terminals (terminal type DT). The polarity configuration is standard, coded as 1, meaning the positive terminal is positioned on the right when the battery is viewed from the front.
A. Yes. The AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) Spiralcell construction means the electrolyte is fully absorbed into glass mat separators. There is no free liquid, making the battery spill-proof and safe for installation in enclosed or awkward-angle marine applications.
A. The 8006-252 is designated as a marine starter battery optimised for cranking performance. Optima's AGM technology offers improved resilience to discharge compared with flooded batteries, but for primary deep-cycle or trolling motor applications a dedicated dual-purpose or deep-cycle battery is generally recommended.
A. The underlying Spiralcell AGM technology is compatible with start-stop operation. However, compatibility should be verified against the product label and vehicle manufacturer requirements before installation, as this specific SKU is marketed primarily as a marine starter battery.
A. The battery uses a B00 hold-down configuration. This refers to a base-mount hold-down system. Confirm the hold-down type is compatible with the battery tray or bracket in your specific vessel or vehicle before ordering.
A. No cross-reference codes are listed for this SKU. Fitment should be confirmed by comparing the physical dimensions, terminal type, voltage and CCA requirements against your original equipment specification.
A. The battery is supplied with a 2-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal operating and charging conditions.
A. Standard delivery is 1–3 working days within UK mainland. A 30-day returns policy applies. For remote or offshore locations, delivery timescales may vary – contact PartsForMachines for details prior to ordering.
