Product Number: 16873N
The WAI 16873N is a 24-volt, 3.2kW OSGR starter motor. It is designed to replace Mitsubishi original-equipment units, including references M002T64271, M002T64272 and M003T52071, as well as Caterpillar references 859096 and 8S9096. Across 14 OE cross-references in total, it covers the Caterpillar Ag. & Ind. EL70 application (1992–1994), making it a well-specified direct replacement for plant and agricultural machinery running Mitsubishi starter arrangements.
Built to OSGR (Off-Set Gear Reduction) design principles, this unit delivers reliable cranking torque through a 9-tooth pinion on a clockwise-rotation drive. The OSGR configuration reduces strain on the ring gear during engagement, which is particularly valuable in demanding plant environments where repeated heavy-duty starting cycles are the norm. Supplied brand new, it meets the same performance envelope as the original Mitsubishi-manufactured starter it replaces.
The WAI 16873N suits operators sourcing a direct-fit replacement for worn or failed OE starters without the uncertainty of remanufactured units. All fitment data is cross-referenced against manufacturer records.
