Connecting rod for Scania TD 120

The connecting rod serves as the mechanical link between the piston and the crankshaft within the Scania TD 120 engine. It functions by transferring the force generated during the combustion process and converting the linear reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotational motion of the crankshaft.

This component is designed specifically for the Scania TD 120 engine. Proper installation and alignment are necessary to maintain the dynamic balance of the engine assembly and to ensure the efficient transmission of power from the combustion chamber to the rotating assembly.

In internal combustion engines, connecting rods are subjected to significant compressive and tensile forces during operation. They must maintain structural integrity to facilitate the conversion of energy while managing the inertia of the reciprocating piston assembly at various engine speeds.
