Connecting Rod Bearing Set

This connecting rod bearing set serves as a vital interface between the connecting rod and the crankshaft. It is designed to facilitate smooth rotation and support mechanical movement within the engine block. By creating a stable surface for the oil film, this component ensures that the rotating assembly operates efficiently under various driving conditions.

We offer this precision component from Glyco under the supplier code 71-5053/4 STD. The set is specifically engineered with a sputter coating on the rod side which provides enhanced durability against wear and fatigue. You must pay close attention to the design configuration as these bearings are manufactured without a locating lug or cam. If your specific engine assembly requires a version with a cam, you should refer to the alternative specification 71-3952/4 STD to ensure correct installation.

The primary function of these bearings is to minimize friction between moving metal parts. By maintaining the correct clearance, they prevent direct contact that could cause severe damage to the crankshaft journals. This protection is essential for maintaining oil pressure and extending the overall service life of the engine.

This bearing set is compatible with a vast array of vehicles, primarily focusing on the Citroën and Peugeot families. It fits numerous models including the Peugeot 508, 3008, and Expert, as well as the Citroën C4, C5, and Jumpy. The compatibility extends to shared platforms including the Fiat Scudo, Opel Grandland X, and Land Rover Freelander 2. Whether you are working on a DS 5 or a Fiat Ulysse, this Glyco product offers the specific dimensions required for these engine types.
