369-9356: Camshaft Idler Gear

Description: An Idler Gear is a type of gear used in a mechanical system to transfer power and motion between two other gears. The idler gear is typically located between two other gears and is used to change the direction of rotation or to adjust the speed of the driven gear. The idler gear is designed to mesh with both the driving gear and the driven gear and to rotate freely on its axis. As the driving gear rotates, it turns the idler gear, which in turn rotates the driven gear. Attributes: • Helps to reduce engine noise by providing a smooth and quiet operation of the camshaft. • Manufactured to precise specifications and are built for durability, reliability, and productivity. Applications: An Idler Gear is located between the crankshaft and the camshaft and is used to adjust the timing of the camshaft relative to the crankshaft used in Engine Camshaft, mostly used in Cat 3512, 3512B, 3512C, 3516, 3516B, 3516C, 3524 and 3524B Engine (Piston), 6060 and 6060X Excavators, 784C, 785, 785B, 785C, 785D, 789, 789B, 789C, 789D, 793, 793B, 793C, 793D, 793F, 797, 797B, MT4400 and MT4400D Truck, 789D TH55 Powertrain
