Although crankshafts are a high cost replacement item, it is still worth you investment to insist on genuine Cat new and remanufactured crankshafts.

Journals are finish-ground and polished assuring ultimate smoothness for less internal friction and long bearing life.
All crankshaft are precision balanced, both statically and dynamically to provide long life.
Front and rear crankshaft seals have wear sleeves to provide increased crank reusability. Because of the quality built into Cat Crankshafts, often a crank can be reused rather than replaced. However, when replacement is necessary, or when uptime is critical, exchange may be the best option. Caterpillar offers a complete line of value-priced Cat Reman Crankshafts to minimize your cost. .
