Description
Overview:
This crankshaft gland bush is a genuine Villiers part for MK20 and MK25 engines. It is a precision-made metal bush that supports and centres the crankshaft at the gland, helping to maintain correct alignment and sealing so the engine runs smoothly. Used on classic Villiers stationary engines commonly found in older construction and garden machines, it replaces worn or ovalised bushes that can cause vibration, leaks, and premature wear. Supplied as unused old stock, the surface may show light tarnishing from age, but this does not affect performance. Selecting a genuine bush helps ensure the correct fit and tolerance for the crankshaft journal and housing, restoring dependable operation and extending engine life during maintenance or restoration work.

Suitable for routine rebuilds, fault rectification, and long-term preservation of heritage and working engines.
