The brand name for a type of friction clutch in an electric starter for small engines. When electric current is applied to the starter, the friction clutch (the Bendix) moves forward to engage a pinion gear on the starter with a ring gear on the engine flywheel. As the starter's pinion rotates, it rotates the ring gear, which moves the flywheel to turn the engine over.
