Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, check the vehicle’s charging system requirements against the 12V and 180A rating shown here. Alternators must match the vehicle’s electrical setup closely, and the four-point mounting style should also be compared with the existing unit so the replacement physically mounts the same way.

The part number 443272 is the most reliable identifier to compare first. Where a Mercedes-Benz application is involved, confirm the exact model designation and build details on the vehicle, because the supplied fitment covers several Mercedes-Benz lines rather than a single model only.

Weight is listed at 7.45kg, which can be useful when comparing the replacement to the removed alternator. If the old unit differs in output, mounting style, or part number, it is safer to verify against the vehicle identification details and the original component before fitting.

This alternator is sold as an individual unit and is covered by a one-year warranty. For workshop or DIY replacement, it is still important to compare pulley arrangement, connector style, and mounting points on the vehicle, as those details are not stated here and should be confirmed against the existing alternator.

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 443272 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.
