At Tanaka, our expert engine builders are committed to manufacturing innovative products that are built with quality from the inside out.
For maximum engine performance and longevity, Tanaka engines feature a hard chrome plated and stress relieved cylinder. Two piston rings help maintain peak compression and endurance. In addition, two large ball bearings supporting a forged steel crankshaft provide for smooth and solid power output.
Most recently, Tanaka’s innovative PureFire® low emission engine became the first two stroke engine to certify to the stringent California Air Resources Board’s (C.A.R.B.) Tier II emissions standards.
The PureFire® engine reduces emission levels by up to 70 percent and reduces fuel costs by up to 30 percent. Tanaka leads the world in fuel economy with gas powered hand held equipment. It even pays for itself in less than 2 years with professional usage. PureFire’s engine design is simple—just three redesigned components and a catalytic muffler. You can easily identify these products by the 'PF' in their name or by looking for the PureFire® icon on the product. Tanaka has a solid history of developing innovative product features and accessories to help you get the job done faster and easier.
The BRAIN® fully automatic trimmer head was one of many industry firsts for Tanaka. For quick and easy starts, the AST-210 grass trimmer features our Auto-Start™ electric starting system. Tanaka’s QuickTwist™ pivoting handle system comes standard on key hedgetrimmer models. Also included on these models is Tanaka’s Sound Reduction System™ which reduces engine noise by up to 44 percent.
On the accessory side, Tanaka's Perfect Mix® Two-Stroke Engine Oil eliminates the need to remember multiple gas mixtures. In addition, Tanaka was the first to develop the color coded nylon line system for easily identifying different line sizes.
As we begin the 21st century, Tanaka is continuing its commitment of providing professionals and homeowners with more of what they want: reliable, durable, and innovative two-stroke power equipment.
...and unsurpassed fuel savings.
