High-Performance Bearings for Engine Crankshafts
The KT type needle roller bearing is specifically designed for the big-end or lower end bore of the connecting rod in engine crankshafts. This type of bearing operates eccentrically around the engine output shaft, with centrifugal forces significantly increasing at higher rotational speeds. Therefore, the structural strength of the cage requires special reinforcement.
The cage of the KT type bearing is made of SCM 415 chrome molybdenum alloy steel, which undergoes heat treatment and shot peening to enhance fatigue strength.
KT type needle roller bearings are engineered for high-performance engine applications, combining advanced material treatments, exceptional hardness, and precise tolerances to meet the demands of high-speed and high-stress operations. Whether for motorcycles or other engines, KT type bearings deliver superior durability and reliability.
