Engine Bearings

Engine bearings are core components within internal combustion engines that support rotating parts and reduce friction. Primarily of the sliding bearing type, they rely on an oil film formed by lubricating oil to prevent direct metal-to-metal contact. These bearings are crucial for ensuring stable engine operation and preventing major failures. Engine bearings are typically classified by their installation location and the components they support, primarily divided into Main Bearings, Rod Bearings, Cam Bearings, Thrust Washers, and Balance Shaft Bearings.
