Starters are essential components in automotive electrical systems, responsible for initiating the engine's operation. They typically consist of an electric motor, a solenoid, and a drive mechanism, which work together to crank the engine when the ignition is turned on. Starters are usually made from durable materials such as steel and various alloys to withstand the harsh conditions of engine compartments. They are designed to provide high torque at low speeds, enabling the engine to start efficiently.
| Voltage | 12V or 24V |
| Motor type | Permanent magnet or series wound |
| Typical torque range | 100 to 300 Nm |
| Weight | 5 to 15 kg |
| Mounting type | Side or rear mount |
When selecting a starter, buyers should consider the vehicle's voltage requirements and the specific engine type. It's important to specify the torque requirements and any mounting preferences to ensure compatibility. Additionally, checking for certifications and quality standards can help in choosing a reliable product. Quantities may vary based on whether the purchase is for individual replacement or bulk for manufacturing.
