Electrical, Charging, and Starting Parts

Alternator / Generator and Related Components

An alternator is a critical component of a vehicleā€™s electrical system that generates electrical energy to power the vehicleā€™s electrical systems and recharge the battery while the engine is running. It is typically driven by the engineā€™s crankshaft via a belt and converts mechanical energy into electrical energy through electromagnetic induction.

Battery and Related Components

Our battery and related components ensure reliable power and secure connections, featuring essentials like booster cables, terminals, trays, and more for optimal performance.

Our bearings for electrical, charging, and starting systems ensure smooth and reliable operation, contributing to the longevity and efficiency of critical vehicle components.

Brackets, flanges, and hangers securely mount and position various parts within the system.

Electrical Connectors

An electrical connector is a device used to join electrical circuits or components, allowing for the transfer of electricity between them.

Hardware, Fasteners and Fittings

Hardware, fasteners and fittings ensure that electrical connections are secure, stable, and capable of withstanding the high temperatures, vibrations, and environmental factors present in automotive systems.

Sensors

A sensor monitors and collects data about various physical parameters and conditions, converting this information into electrical signals that can be interpreted by the vehicleā€™s electronic control unit (ECU) or other systems.

Starter and Related Components

A starter motor initiates the engineā€™s operation by converting electrical energy from the battery into mechanical energy. Its primary function is to crank the engine, allowing it to begin the combustion process, after which the engine takes over and runs on its own power.

Switches, Solenoids and Actuators

Switches, solenoids, and actuators play key roles in controlling and facilitating the flow of electricity to start and operate the engine and related components.

Voltage Regulator

A voltage regulator is an electronic device that maintains a consistent voltage level within a circuit, ensuring that electrical components receive the appropriate voltage to operate correctly.
