Heavy Duty Starter Motors for Industrial Power and Reliability | MultiTorque 2025

Heavy duty starter motors are the backbone of reliable engine starts in demanding industrial environments. Whether you operate mining equipment, construction machinery, or heavy transport vehicles, a dependable starter motor is critical to keeping your operation moving.

At MultiTorque, we specialise in supplying, repairing, and servicing heavy duty starter motors designed to perform under Australia’s toughest conditions.


What Makes a Starter Motor “Heavy Duty”?

Heavy duty starter motors differ from standard starters by their enhanced construction and durability. They are engineered to:

  • Deliver higher torque to turn large engines

  • Withstand harsh environmental factors like dust, vibration, and moisture

  • Operate reliably over extended periods with minimal maintenance

  • Fit a wide range of heavy machinery, including trucks, excavators, and industrial pumps

This makes heavy duty starter motors essential in sectors like mining, agriculture, and construction.


Industries That Rely on Heavy Duty Starter Motors

  • Mining: Large diesel engines require high torque starters to overcome cold starts and heavy compression.

  • Construction: Earthmovers, cranes, and bulldozers demand rugged starter motors that resist vibration and dust.

  • Transport and Logistics: Heavy trucks and trailers need starters that perform consistently on long-haul trips.

  • Industrial Applications: Pumps, compressors, and generators depend on reliable starter motors to minimize downtime.

MultiTorque supplies and services starter motors tailored to these industries and more.
