Rear Thrust Bearing Washer - 0.01 Inch Thicker, S60
Detroit Diesel

The rear thrust bearing washer, measuring 0.01 inch in thickness, is a critical component for maintaining proper axial clearance between the crankshaft and surrounding engine parts. Its precise dimensions and high-quality material ensure consistent performance under extreme conditions, such as high RPMs and thermal stress common in heavy-duty engines. This washer absorbs axial loads, preventing excessive end-play that could cause bearing misalignment or damage. Its installation is vital during engine rebuilds, as it helps preserve the crankshaft’s position and reduces wear on other engine components. The thin profile allows for fine adjustment and ensures the correct preload on the crankshaft assembly. Using this washer as part of routine maintenance or rebuilds helps sustain engine stability and prolongs overall engine life.
