The main bearing shell plays a role in cooling the bearings and ensuring liquid lubrication in the engine. When the sliding bearing is working, a thin oil film is required between the bearing bush and the rotating shaft to lubricate. If the lubrication is poor, there will be direct friction between the bearing pad and the shaft, and the friction will generate high temperature. Although the bearing pad is made of special high-temperature resistant alloy material, the high temperature generated by direct friction is still enough to burn it out.
The main bearing set plays a vital role in engine performance by supporting the crankshaft, which in turn drives the engine's pistons. The kit is designed to withstand the high levels of stress and pressure encountered during operation. Cummins main bearing sets are constructed of high-quality materials for durability and reliability, which are essential for continued engine operation.
One of the main advantages of Cummins main bearing sets is their quality. It is designed and manufactured by Cummins to exceed the standards set by the industry. Cummins is known for high quality engine parts and this main bearing set is no exception. It has passed strict quality control, ensuring that only the best parts are supplied to customers.
