001FL10358000 MAHLE Crankshaft Bearing

MAHLE's Engine Bearings (MPN: 001FL10358000) play a vital role in the crankcase of an engine, allowing for smooth rotation of the crankshaft. Found in both passenger vehicles and commercial engines, these bearings are designed to minimize friction and extend engine lifespan. With dimensions measuring 52.0 x 105.0 x 160.0 mm, they offer optimal performance. Dimensions are provided by the supplier and may include packaging dimensions. Crankshaft bearings are precision components facilitating smooth rotary motion between the crankshaft and engine block. Located within the engine’s main and connecting rod bearing bores, these bearings support significant loads and reduce friction generated by reciprocating piston motion. Typically manufactured from tri-metal or polymer-coated steel, they feature a split design for ease of installation and precise clearance control. Oil grooves and channels within the bearing surface maintain a hydrodynamic oil wedge, preventing metal-to-metal contact. Dimensional accuracy and material hardness are critical for maintaining engine performance and longevity, with variations existing for different engine families and load requirements.
