Designation : HOT RODS Needle Bearing for Connecting Rod 12x15x14.50 mm
Manufacturer Reference : WB143
This HOT RODS needle bearing is designed to equip the connecting rod of engines with internal dimensions of 12/15 mm and a width of 14.5 mm. A simple yet essential part, it fits between the connecting rod and the piston pin to ensure cylindrical guidance of the needles and reduce wear on rotating surfaces.
Ideal for urban, motocross, and roadster applications, this bearing is suitable for 50 cc engines and other blocks compatible with these dimensions — examples include models like VENT DÉRAPAGE 50 RR, KTM 50 SX, or HUSQVARNA TC 50 (check dimensional compatibility before installation).
Practical tips: install cleanly, avoiding any dirt in the housing, check the play, and lubricate according to the engine's recommendations. If necessary, consult a workshop for pressing and fit checking to ensure optimal lifespan without risk to the crankshaft or connecting rod.
