Connecting Rod Bearing Set

This connecting rod bearing set from Kolbenschmidt is engineered to facilitate the smooth rotation of the connecting rod on the crankshaft. By creating a precise surface for movement, it effectively reduces friction and prevents direct metal contact between these critical engine components during operation.

This specific set is manufactured to standard dimensions (Std) and is configured as a complete kit for four-cylinder engines. A defining technical characteristic is the sputter coating applied to the rod side. This specification is distinct from standard bearings and is designed to address specific load distribution within the assembly. You can verify this product using the supplier code 77972600.

The primary function of these bearings is to support rotational movement while withstanding the dynamic forces generated during the combustion cycle. The sputter design on the rod side is specifically intended to manage the pressures found in the connecting rod assembly. Ensuring the correct bearing specifications is vital for maintaining oil pressure and preventing premature engine wear.

Kolbenschmidt produces this component for an extensive range of Mercedes-Benz applications. The compatibility list covers major series including the A-Class, C-Class, E-Class, and S-Class. It also fits widely used commercial platforms such as the Sprinter, Vito, and Viano across various chassis generations like the W447 and B906. Additionally, the set is suitable for the Jeep Compass. This broad coverage makes it a key component for maintaining these specific powertrains.
