Bosch Alternator 12V 180A 0125811028
This Bosch alternator is a new 12V, 180A unit, part number 0125811028, supplied as each and made in Spain. It is listed with an internal regulator, a quad leg alternator mount, and a 6 groove pulley with free-wheel belt pulley arrangement.
It suits Bosch applications and is noted for stop start applications. The alternator is a CW rotation unit, with a 56mm pulley outside diameter, M8 pivot hole diameter, M8 adjusting hole diameter, and 61mm inside mounting legs.
This is an alternator type that excludes a vacuum pump. For the right job, the important checks are the part number, mounting style, pulley type, rotation, and whether the vehicle uses a stop start charging setup.
A one year warranty is listed. Recommended additional repairs include the V-belt or V-ribbed belt, which is worth checking if the existing belt shows wear, glazing, cracking, or contamination.

Application and Buying Notes
The safest way to confirm this alternator is by matching part number 0125811028 and then checking the vehicle’s mounting arrangement. The key physical points here are the quad leg mount, double pivot lever fastening type, 61mm inside mounting legs, and M8 pivot and adjusting holes.
The pulley setup also matters. This unit is supplied with a 6 groove pulley and free-wheel belt pulley, so the belt system on the vehicle should match that arrangement. If the existing belt shows wear, the recommended additional repair is the V-belt or V-ribbed belt, which is sensible to inspect at the same time.
Because this alternator is noted for stop start applications and is an internal regulator unit, it should only be selected where those details match the vehicle’s charging system requirements. A standard alternator with a different regulator arrangement, rotation, or pulley profile is not an equivalent substitute.
The alternator is described as new and excludes a vacuum pump, so it is important to compare the full assembly layout rather than relying on voltage alone. The 12V and 180A figures tell you the electrical output, but they do not by themselves confirm fitment across all vehicles that use Bosch rotating electrical components.
Before 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.
For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number 0125811028 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.

Bosch Alternator 12V 180A. Part number 0125811028 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. Listed output rating is 180. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.
Mount style is Quad Leg. Regulator type is Internal. Pulley configuration is 6 Groove. Those physical and electrical details should line up with the original unit before the replacement is approved for fitment.
For part number 0125811028, 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.
For a alternator in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 and output 180 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.
Compatibility note: Please confirm fitment using part number 0125811028, the Bosch application details, the 12V 180A specification, and the mounting and pulley measurements before purchase. If the vehicle uses a different mount, pulley, rotation, or regulator arrangement, this unit may not be suitable.
