Rope for Recoil Starter Engine (Manual)

1. Rope Specifications:

  • Diameter: 6mm (approximately #6 or 3/16-inch equivalent in recoil starter rope sizing).
  • Length: 50m (164 feet), which is significantly longer than typical recoil starter needs (usually 1-2m per engine). This suggests the rope is a bulk spool for multiple replacements or applications.
  • Weight: 1kg for 50m, implying a dense, durable material like nylon or polyester, common for recoil ropes due to their strength and low stretch.

 

Material Considerations:

  • Nylon: Strong, abrasion-resistant, slightly elastic. Common for recoil starters (e.g., Stihl or Honda engines).
  • Polyester: Less stretch, UV-resistant, also widely used.
  • Weight Check: A 50m spool of 6mm nylon rope typically weighs ~0.8-1.2kg, so your 1kg spec aligns with high-quality starter rope.

 

2. Compatibility:

  • A 6mm rope fits most medium to large recoil starter systems (e.g., for engines in lawnmowers, snow blowers, or outboard motors). Confirm your engine’s pulley accepts 6mm; smaller engines may use 3-4.5mm ropes.
  • The 50m length suggests you’re buying in bulk. A single recoil starter typically requires 1-2m, so this spool could service ~25-50 replacements.
