Connecting rods are one of the most important engine components, responsible for transmitting the movement of the pistons to the crankshaft. Their durability and precision of manufacture have a direct impact on the efficiency, performance and durability of the drive unit. In the Global Parts automotive store you will find a wide selection of used car parts , including connecting rods and parts for popular brands such as BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini and others.

What are the functions of connecting rods and their parts?

Connecting rods and their parts play a key role in the functioning of the engine. Together they are responsible for:

• Energy Transfer – The connecting rod connects the piston to the crankshaft, converting the linear motion of the piston into the rotary motion of the shaft.
• Engine Stabilization – Ensures even and smooth movement of all cylinders.
• Strength under extreme conditions – Connecting rods must withstand the enormous forces and temperatures generated during combustion of the fuel-air mixture. The key components of connecting rods are:
• Connecting rod connector – The central element connecting the piston to the crankshaft.
• Connecting rod bearings – Ensure smooth movement of the connecting rod and minimize friction.
• Fastening bolts and nuts – They are responsible for the solid connection of the connecting rod to the crankshaft.

Why is it worth taking care of connecting rods and their parts?

Faulty or damaged connecting rods and parts can lead to serious engine failures such as:

• Connecting rod breakage – Can cause damage to other key components such as the pistons or crankshaft.
• Excessive friction – Due to worn bearings or improper lubrication.
• Vibration and noise – Caused by loose or damaged connecting rod connections. At Global Parts we offer original used connecting rods and parts that have undergone extensive quality testing, ensuring their reliability and durability.
