Description
Overview:
The Piston Pin - Robin Part - RB279 23301 13 is a precision-made engine component that links the piston to the connecting rod and allows smooth pivoting through the small end. Typically manufactured from hardened, wear-resistant steel with a precision-ground finish, a piston pin works under high load and temperature, so correct material and finish are important for longevity. This pin is suitable for small petrol engines used across construction and garden machinery such as generators, plate compactors, water pumps, tillers, and lawn and turf equipment. Used as a direct replacement for a worn or scored pin, it helps restore smooth engine operation, reduce knock, and maintain correct running clearances. The RB279 23301 13 reference helps identify it against the original specification during servicing or rebuilds.
Key Features:
- Durable steel construction for high strength and long service life
- Precision-ground surfaces to support low friction movement and reduced wear
- Direct-fit replacement to match RB279 23301 13 dimensions for straightforward installation
- Helps restore correct piston-to-rod articulation and reduce mechanical noise
- Suitable for routine servicing, engine overhauls, and preventative maintenance
- Stable performance under continuous duty in construction and garden equipment
- Compatible with small air-cooled petrol engines commonly used on site and in the garden
- Designed to work with the small-end bearing or bush in the connecting rod
Typical Applications:
Used during engine rebuilds or repairs when the original pin shows scoring, oval wear, or looseness. Common in maintenance of small engines powering plate compactors, portable generators, water pumps, cement mixers, scarifiers, brushcutters, and mowers. Fit when replacing pistons, rings, or con-rods to maintain reliable starting, smoother running, and consistent output.
Also known as:
Gudgeon pin, wrist pin, piston wrist pin, engine piston pin, piston gudgeon pin. These terms refer to the same cylindrical pin that connects the piston to the connecting rod and permits controlled oscillation during the engine cycle.
