A muffler for a small engine includes a first expansion chamber 12 for exhaust gas having an exhaust gas inlet 11 being connected to an exhaust gas outlet of the engine, a second expansion chamber 15 being partitioned from the first expansion chamber 12 by a partition plate 14 and being communicated with the first expansion chamber 12 through a first communicating hole 13 on the partition plate 14, and a third expansion chamber 18 being partitioned from the second expansion chamber 15 by the partition plate 14 and being communicated with the second expansion chamber 15 through a second communicating hole 16 on the partition plate 14 and having an exhaust gas outlet 17. A first heat resistant mesh catalyst 19 is disposed on the exhaust gas inlet 11. A first exhaust gas purifier 20 composed of a heat resistant knit fabric 20a coated with a catalyst for purifying the exhaust gas is disposed on the communicating hole 13 on the partition plate 14. Accordingly, the muffler for a small engine having a large muffling effect and a large purification effect on the exhaust gas can be provided. A manufacturing process of the exhaust gas purifier is simple and thereby a manufacturing cost of the muffler for a small engine is reduced.
