117-9712: Accessory Drive Idler Shaft

Description: The drive idler shaft for the front timing gear is an important component in an engine's timing system. It plays a crucial role in maintaining the correct synchronization and timing of various engine components, particularly the camshaft, and crankshaft. One end of the idler shaft is connected to the engine block or cylinder head, while the other end is inserted into a bearing housing or boss. This bearing housing is designed to accommodate a bearing or bushing, which allows the idler shaft to rotate smoothly and reduce friction. Attributes: • Made of durable and high-quality metal. • Built to withstand the rigors of engine operation, including high temperatures and mechanical stresses • Designed to work seamlessly with the crankshaft gear and camshaft gear. • Smooth and precision-machined for reduced friction and improved longevity. Applications: The drive idler shaft for the front timing gear is used to provide support and rotational movement to the idler gear, which is responsible for transferring rotational power from the crankshaft to the camshaft. It is extensively used in Cat 24 and 24H Motor Grader, 3126, 3126E, 3408, 3408B, 3408C, 3408E, 3412, 3412C, 3412D, 3412E, C27, C30, C32, C32B, CG137-12, CG137-8, G3408, 3408B, G3408C, G3412, 3412, and G3412C Engine (Piston), 320, 5110, 775, and 777F Oem Applications.
