8N-4960 50 mm OD Thrust Plate
Cat® 50 mm OD Powdered Metal Steel Thrust Plate Used in Front Timing Gear
Description
The thrust plate is a component used to control axial movement of the idler, because axial movement can damage other components in the front timing gear group. It is designed to fit the idler group and its shaft. The thrust plate is usually located at the front of the engine block and is held in place with bolts. It is made of durable material such as steel and is designed to withstand the high forces generated by the engine. It is a sturdy, stable plate that can support heavy loads without bending or breaking.
Features
- Hardened to a minimum Rockwell C hardness of 35 HRC for increased strength and wear resistance.
- Provides a secure connection for the idler.
- Has a good surface finish.
- Comes with 2 mounting holes for use with 5/16 fasteners.
Applications
The thrust plate is used to secure the idler in the front timing gear arrangement.
