The Honda 28463-ZED-801 Reinforcement Knob is a genuine OEM component designed for GX160 and GX200 horizontal shaft engines. As a factory-original part, it is manufactured to the same standards as the component it replaces, ensuring a direct, hassle-free fit. Honda supersedes parts at serial number breaks, so confirm your engine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering to ensure part number 28463-ZED-801 is the correct application for your unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — sourced directly from Honda, this knob matches the original in form and function, eliminating the guesswork that comes with unverified replacements.
- Direct OEM Replacement — engineered to drop in exactly where the original sits, with no rework or adaptation needed on GX160 and GX200 engines.
- Serial Number Matters — Honda updates part supersessions at specific production breaks; always cross-reference your engine serial number with the compatibility table to confirm fitment.
The Reinforcement Knob is a structural support component used in the recoil starter assembly of GX-series horizontal shaft engines. It reinforces the starter rope knot or anchor point, preventing the rope from pulling through under the repeated tension of engine starting. A cracked, stripped, or missing knob allows the rope to slip free, leaving the starter inoperable and the engine unable to be started by hand — making timely replacement essential to keeping equipment in service.
