OEX Starter Motor 24V 12 Tooth CW Denso DXS1460

The OEX DXS1460 is a new 24V starter motor with 12 teeth and clockwise rotation, built as a Denso-suited unit for heavy-duty applications. It carries an 8kW power rating, a 3-hole starter mount, and an overall length of 455mm, so the physical dimensions and mounting pattern are important checks before ordering.

This starter is listed with mount centres of 147mm at A and 103mm at C, a 92mm flange diameter, and 17mm mount hole diameter. The pinion measures 56mm in diameter and sits 48mm at rest, which helps when comparing against the existing unit already on the machine.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, compare the part number DXS1460, the 24V rating, and the 12 tooth clockwise configuration against the starter currently fitted to the machine. The unit is 455mm long with a 92mm flange diameter and 3-hole mounting, so matching the physical layout matters as much as matching the electrical specification.

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 DXS1460 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.

OEX Starter Motor 24V 12Th CW Denso. Part number DXS1460 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 24. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number DXS1460, 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 starter motor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 24 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include CATERPILLAR 777D, CATERPILLAR 777D 1990, CATERPILLAR 785C, CATERPILLAR 785C 1984, INTERNATIONAL 7000-SERIES, INTERNATIONAL 7000-SERIES 2003. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

The listed warranty is 3yr Passenger 1yr Commercial. Warranty terms should be considered alongside correct application and part identification, as warranty does not replace fitment confirmation.

For this listing, part number DXS1460 remains the key starting point. Correct part selection depends on matching the original unit details, not just the general application description. That is why workshop records, OEM references, and direct comparison with the removed unit remain important wherever there is any doubt.

For part number DXS1460, the listed voltage 24 should be checked against the existing unit. Checking the exact electrical and mounting specification helps avoid repeat labour, return freight, and unnecessary downtime.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment by matching the part number DXS1460, the 24V 12 tooth clockwise configuration, the 3-hole mount, and the insulated return above ground arrangement to the existing starter and machine application before purchase.
