Description
Overview:
The Honda GX160 QX is a 4-stroke petrol engine with a 3/4" (19.05 mm) keyed parallel shaft, supplied as a complete power unit for small plant and garden machinery. Built with a cast alloy block and metal protective shrouds for durability, it provides dependable drive for equipment such as compactors, generators, pressure washers and cement mixers. Its compact size (length 35 cm, width 34 cm, depth 32 cm) helps where space is tight and access is limited. Honda reference codes include GX160 QX and GX160 QX4 (MPN EGX160QX) for identification. Important: the output shaft is 3/4" (19.05 mm) and is not suitable for 20 mm couplings, pulleys, clutches or other drive components. An integrated Oil Alert system helps protect the engine if the oil level drops.

Typical Applications:
Commonly used on light construction and grounds-care equipment where a horizontal 3/4" (19.05 mm) shaft is required. Typical examples include plate compactors, generators, pressure washers, water pumps, cement mixers, rotary tillers, scarifiers and similar machinery. Suitable for replacement projects where the original engine used a GX160-type mounting and a 3/4" keyed drive.
