It is listed as a Bosch unit with an internal regulator, twin leg alternator mount, and pulley section A, so it suits buyers comparing the mounting layout and electrical setup before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey dimensions include 80mm inside mounting legs, 197mm mount centre to centre, an M8 x 1.25 adjusting hole, and a 10.1 pivot hole diameter. The pulley outside diameter is 64mm and the shaft dimension is 17, giving you useful checkpoints when matching the alternator to the vehicle or machine already in service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit weighs 9.21kg and is covered by a one year warranty. It is described as being made from high quality raw materials, corrosion resistant, and fitted with a reduction drive designed to maintain continual speeds for easier starting. Those are practical points for buyers who need a replacement alternator with the correct mount and output rather than a generic universal part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12V alternator with 60A power rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew unit, not remanufactured\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal regulator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwin leg alternator mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePulley section A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrosion resistant construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Bosch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart No.: BXD1242A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Alternator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVoltage: 12V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower Rating: 60A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew \/ Reman.: New\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegulator Type: Internal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlternator Mount: Twin Leg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment references supplied with this part\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDatsun 180B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDatsun 200B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDatsun 260C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDatsun 280C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDatsun Sunny\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHolden Astra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKomatsu DT11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKomatsu FG14L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplication and Buying Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore buying, match the part number BXD1242A, the 12V electrical system, and the 60A output rating against the unit being replaced. Alternators can share a general appearance while still differing in mounting points, regulator type, pulley section, and shaft dimensions, so the 80mm inside mounting legs and 197mm centre to centre measurement are important checks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe twin leg mount, M8 x 1.25 adjusting hole, and 10.1 pivot hole diameter are the most useful physical identifiers here. If the existing alternator uses a different mount style or hole spacing, the part may not be suitable even if the vehicle family is listed elsewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 64mm pulley outside diameter and A pulley section should also be checked against the belt setup already fitted. That matters because belt alignment and pulley section need to match the vehicle or machine application, particularly where the alternator sits in a tight accessory drive layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a new Bosch alternator with an internal regulator, so it is aimed at replacements where those features match the original arrangement. The 9.21kg weight can also be a helpful cross-check when comparing removed parts, especially on older vehicles or industrial equipment where previous repairs may have changed the component already installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fitment references include a mix of Datsun, Holden, Nissan and Komatsu applications, but the safest buying method is still to compare the part number, mount style, and dimensions. If any of those do not line up with the existing unit, stop and verify before fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number BXD1242A helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelevant published details for this unit include Type ALTERNATOR, Unit of Measure EACH, Warranty One Year, Inside Mounting Legs 80mm, Power Rating (Amp) 60, Pulley Section A, Suits Unit Make Bosch, Alternator Mount Twin Leg, New \/ Reman.

Pulley configuration is A. Those physical and electrical details should line up with the original unit before the replacement is approved for fitment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor part number BXD1242A, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a alternator in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 and output 60 should be checked carefully.
