The PA B24 is a compact reduction gearbox designed for petrol and diesel engine–driven pressure washer systems rated between 18 and 24 HP. Manufactured by P.A. SpA in Italy, the B24 converts engine speeds of 3,100 RPM down to approximately 1,450 RPM using hardened steel helical gears, providing smooth, quiet power transfer to triplex plunger pumps. Its lightweight construction (under 4 kg) and standard SAE J609B engine flange make it a versatile choice for mobile and skid-mounted washing units across New Zealand.
