OEX Starter Motor 12V 11 Tooth CW Hitachi Style HXS025

The OEX HXS025 is a new 12V starter motor in Hitachi style, set up with clockwise rotation and 11 teeth on the pinion. It is a 3-hole starter motor with a 105mm flange diameter, 140mm and 115mm mount centres, and an 80mm third mount centre, so the physical mounting points should be checked carefully before purchase.

This unit is rated at 2.2kW and has a pinion at rest measurement of 10mm, with a 40mm pinion diameter and 236mm overall length. It weighs 6kg and is listed as new, making the critical checks the part number HXS025, the 12V electrical setup, and the mounting dimensions rather than relying on appearance alone.

OEX lists this starter as suited to Hitachi units, and the application data includes Ford Maverick, Hitachi EX60-2, EX60-3, EX60-5, EX60WD-2, EX80, and Nissan industrial and forklift applications, along with Nissan Patrol and Nissan Safari references in the fitment records. Those application names should still be matched against the vehicle or machine details and the starter dimensions before fitting.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, match the starter against the key identifiers: part number HXS025, 12V voltage, clockwise rotation, 11 teeth, and the 3-hole mounting layout. The mounting dimensions are specific here, with 140mm, 115mm, and 80mm mount centres, plus a 105mm flange diameter and 13mm mount hole diameter, so a close visual match is not enough on its own.

If you are replacing a Hitachi-style starter, compare the old unit’s overall length of 236mm, pinion diameter of 40mm, and pinion at rest measurement of 10mm. These measurements help confirm that the replacement sits correctly in the housing and aligns properly with the ring gear or drive arrangement.

The listed fitment coverage includes Ford Maverick, several Hitachi EX-series machines, and Nissan industrial, forklift, Patrol, and Safari references, but application names can vary by market, engine, and installation. Confirm the vehicle or machine details, then check the starter style, rotation, tooth count, and mounting pattern before committing to the part.

The 2.2kW rating and 12V electrical specification are important because starter demand must suit the system it is being installed into. This unit is listed as new and carries a 3-year passenger and 1-year commercial warranty, so it is worth verifying that the intended use matches the warranty category as well as the physical fit.

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 HXS025 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.

For part number HXS025, 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 12 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include FORD MAVERICK, FORD MAVERICK 1988, FORD MAVERICK 1989, FORD MAVERICK 1990, HITACHI EX60-2, HITACHI EX60-2 1991. 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.

Compatibility note: Please confirm compatibility using part number HXS025, the 12V clockwise 11-tooth specification, and the 3-hole mounting dimensions before purchase. Fitment should be verified against the vehicle or machine application and the removed starter motor, as the listed applications are not a substitute for checking the exact installation.
