Description
Overview:
The Connecting Rod Bush (Small End) is a precision-machined bearing bush designed for the BSA 320CC Industrial Engine. As a genuine Villiers component, it fits into the small end of the connecting rod to support the gudgeon pin and maintain correct running clearance under load. Made from a durable bearing-grade material, it provides a stable, low-friction surface that helps control wear and maintain piston alignment throughout the engine's operating range. This OEM part is supplied as unused old stock, so minor tarnishing or storage marks may be present, but performance is unaffected. Ideal for routine overhaul or a full rebuild, it restores dependable operation and protects the piston, pin, and rod in BSA 320CC engines used across workshop and site machinery.
