Design Features & Performance Advantages
OSGR-74 Planetary Gear Reduction Structure: Utilizes OSGR-74 series planetary reduction architecture with 1.4KW power output, specifically optimized for marine diesel engines (YANMAR 3-cylinder Diesel). Compact design with efficient torque output, perfectly matching installation space in marine and industrial applications. 9-tooth drive gear with precise modulus ensures smooth engagement with flywheel ring gear, reducing gear wear and noise. CCW rotation direction meets specific marine engine requirements.
HITACHI Original Mold Design, Direct Replacement: Developed and manufactured based on HITACHI original structure. Mounting holes, wiring terminals, and fixing dimensions are 1:1 matched with original parts. No modifications required --- direct installation for maintenance replacement. Compatible with YANMAR D27, KL series and other marine engine models.
Premium Materials, Durable & Reliable: Stator and rotor use high-purity enameled windings with Class F insulation resistant to high temperatures, preventing overheating damage during frequent start-stop cycles in marine environments. High-wear-resistant graphite brushes ensure stable conductivity and extend service life. Aluminum alloy die-cast housing with enhanced corrosion resistance provides vibration resistance, impact protection, and moisture/splash resistance, suitable for harsh marine conditions. Built-in high-quality one-way clutch automatically disengages after engine start, preventing flywheel back-drive damage to starter.
Export Market Customization: Specifically developed for marine and industrial equipment markets with parameters adapted to mainstream diesel engine platforms. Meets requirements for overseas marine parts wholesale and repair shop maintenance replacements.
Quality & Application Information
Factory-controlled full-process production with comprehensive outgoing inspections including no-load performance, load torque, lock parameters, and insulation withstand voltage testing. Complies with international automotive and marine starter manufacturing standards.
Application Scenarios: Marine engine assembly, industrial equipment parts retail, repair shop faulty part replacement. Optimal replacement starter for YANMAR D27 (85-On, 3cyl Diesel), YANMAR KL (All), and same-platform marine diesel engines.
Frequently Asked Questions
I. Product Selection
Q1: Is the SHI12C42 starter a brand‑new product?
A: Yes, it is 100% brand new. Leshan Dongfeng Automobile Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. (LSDF) guarantees that all starters we sell are factory‑manufactured new units --- never rebuilt or used. We fully understand that reliability in the starting system is critical to engine safety, which is why we consistently deliver the highest quality new components.
Q2: Which engines is this starter compatible with?
A: The SHI12C42 is developed and manufactured based on the original HITACHI design, with mounting holes, terminals, and fixing dimensions matching OEM specifications 1:1 for direct bolt‑on replacement. It is primarily suited for YANMAR D27 (85-On, 3-cylinder Diesel) and YANMAR KL (All) marine engines. In addition, its broad OE cross‑reference list (see the compatibility table on our product page) allows it to serve as a direct replacement for many international marine engine models that use the same starter specifications.
