Hirth HM 512

HM 512
Type Air-cooled inverted V-12 piston engine
National origin Germany
Manufacturer Hirth-Motoren G.m.b.H, Stuttgart
Designer Hellmuth Hirth
Number built small numbers[1]
Developed from Hirth HM 506

The Hirth HM 512 was a 12-cylinder development of the earlier, 6-cylinder HM 506, produced in the late 1930s. Both were supercharged, inverted V, air-cooled engines.[2]

Design and development

The HM 512 shared the same bore and stroke (105 mm × 115 mm) and 6:1 compression ratio with the rest of the HM500 series air-cooled engines. Other shared features were Hirth's use of roller bearings in the crankshaft and at both ends of connecting rods. The crankshaft was of typical Hirth multipart design, the 12-cylinders requiring 7 roller bearings. Like the HM 508, the drive was geared down by 1:1.5.[3]
