Description
Overview:
Genuine Villiers big end shells for MK40 engines, OEM reference EM752/STD (standard size). These precision bearing shells support the crankpin at the connecting rod and are critical for maintaining oil film, reducing friction, and preventing wear. Manufactured from durable, steel-backed bearing material for reliable load handling, they help restore smooth running and correct clearances in Villiers MK40 engines used in garden and light construction machinery. As unused vintage stock, they may show superficial tarnish from storage but remain functionally sound. Fitted as two matching half-shells on the con-rod big end, they provide a precise, direct replacement where the crankshaft journals measure to standard. Ideal for rebuilds, servicing, and long-term maintenance of classic Villiers power units.
Key Features:
- Genuine Villiers part for assured compatibility and performance on MK40 engines
- OEM standard size (STD) EM752/STD for use with standard crankpins (check journal size before fitting)
- Steel-backed bearing construction with precision bearing layer for consistent oil film and load support
- Direct-fit design seats neatly in the connecting rod and cap for reliable alignment
- Restores oil pressure stability and reduces knock, vibration, and wear in tired engines
- Durable materials resist scoring under typical mower, mixer, pump, and generator duty cycles
- Unused old stock: may show cosmetic tarnish, with no impact on service life once installed
- Suitable for engine rebuilds, routine overhauls, and preventive maintenance schedules
Typical Applications:
Replacement of worn big end bearings during overhaul of Villiers MK40 engines powering lawn mowers, rotavators, small generators, water pumps, compact cement mixers, and other stationary or light mobile equipment. Used to correct bearing clearance, restore smooth running, and extend engine service life after fatigue, oil starvation, or contamination.
