BEARING PROPSHAFT CENTRE BEARING FOR VOLVO 240/Kombi/Break/Rural 260 740 760 MEYLE 514 018 3265

So that the cardan transmission can fully work, special parts are used, which are called the centre bearing. It provides reliable fixation of the propeller shaft, allowing it to rotate and distribute the load. The centre bearing is structurally simple. It is a metal body with a metal sleeve. The shaft is inserted into the latter. The space between the shaft and the bushing is filled with grease. This allows the propeller shaft to rotate freely.

The functionality of the propshaft centre bearing

MEYLE brand Bearing, propshaft centre bearing are vibration-resistant. They are protected reliably from the harmful effects of the chemical environment. Installing the bearings is not difficult. Their service life is long. But under heavy loads or improper operation, the propshaft bearing sometimes fails earlier than expected.

If the bearing is defective, jolts are felt at the time of gear shifting and while driving. In addition, vibrations are felt. It should be understood that a bearing is a part that ensures regular rolling and rotation. It locks the axle and propeller shaft firmly, keeping it in position. The propshaft bearing contributes to the systematic redirection of radial and axial loads.
