Kineteco International Ltd

Kineteco build hand wound, mechanical starter motors (spring starters) for diesel engines. Spring starters replace the electric start motor and allow an engine to be started easily and safely by hand, without a battery or alternator. Our spring starters are used all over the world in many applications including ships’ lifeboats, irrigation pumps, black start generators, mining vehicles and fire pumps. In fact, our spring starters can be used anywhere that a diesel engine needs to be started, whatever the conditions. Our range of starters include the traditional Lucas/CAV/Simms models and our unique Z-drives. Spring starters can fire up engines from the smallest one cylinder motors to massive 15 litre generators. We can even apply a spring starter to your own engine configuration. See our website for full details of engines we currently fit or contact us for more information.
