037HS21041000 MAHLE Crankshaft Bearing Set

MAHLE's Engine Main Bearings (MPN: 037HS21041000) are precision-engineered components that play a crucial role in your engine's operation. Used in the crankcase of high-performance engines, they ensure smooth rotation of the crankshaft and reduce wear on engine components. With their precise dimensions (289.0 x 47.0 x 132.0 mm), these bearings are designed to provide 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.
