Overview
Hartzell Permanent Magnet Starters represent the next generation in starter technology, setting new standards in performance and reliability. These lightweight starters deliver exceptional torque to start virtually any general aviation piston engine in nearly any environment, yet weigh about 40% less than conventional starters. The key is patented permanent magnet motor design. It replaces the bulky windings of a conventional starter motor with lightweight permanent magnets.This revolutionary design not only eliminates considerable weight, but results in more efficient starter operation and improved performance under all conditions. During extensive performance testing, Hartzell starters consistently provided quicker engine starts than conventional starters under a variety of operating conditions. These TBO starters are built to go the distance between engine overhauls. Conventional starters generally don’t last, they usually have to be pulled off for repair or replacement at least once during the life of the engine.
