Understanding Conrod Bearings: Function & Importance

What are Conrod Bearings?

Connecting rod bearings, often called conrod bearings, big end bearings, or bottom end bearings, are precision-machined bearing shells that fit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft journal. Their primary function is to create a low-friction surface, allowing the connecting rod to rotate smoothly around the crankshaft while withstanding immense pressure from combustion. They ensure proper oil film formation, which is vital for reducing wear and preventing metal-to-metal contact.

Why are Conrod Bearings So Important?

These crucial components protect your crankshaft and connecting rods from direct contact, absorbing the forces of combustion. Worn or damaged big end bearings can lead to severe engine damage, characterized by symptoms like knocking noises, low oil pressure, or even catastrophic engine failure. Replacing your bottom end bearings during an engine rebuild or major service is crucial for restoring reliability and extending engine life.

🔍 Types of Conrod Bearings:

• Bi-metal bearings: Typically made with a steel back and an aluminium alloy lining, suitable for most standard applications.
• Tri-metal bearings: Feature a steel back, a bronze intermediary layer, and a lead-tin-copper or lead-indium overlay for enhanced wear resistance and load capacity, often found in high-performance or heavy-duty engines.
• Standard & Undersize: We stock conrod bearings in various sizes to accommodate different engine wear tolerances during rebuilds, particularly for crankshafts that have been machined, requiring undersize bearings for proper fitment.
