Pride Fixed Timing Bearing
The fixed timing bearing of the Pride is a crucial component of the vehicles timing system, responsible for providing mechanical support to the movement path of the timing belt without applying any variable tension or adjustment. Unlike idler or spring-loaded bearings, this type functions in a fixed manner, serving primarily as a durable support to maintain the belt’s straight trajectory. The body of this bearing is typically made from heat-treated alloy steel, engineered to withstand the high pressure and temperature conditions resulting from continuous engine operation. Using a high-quality, standard-compliant fixed timing bearing in a Pride engine helps reduce premature wear of the timing belt, eliminate unwanted noise in the timing system, and maintain the engine’s precise performance.
From a technical standpoint, the fixed timing bearing must meet exact dimensional specifications according to factory design to properly align with Pride engines such as the M13 and similar models. It generally features a sealed construction that prevents the intrusion of contaminants, dust, and moisture, thereby extending its service life. The internal lubrication system is permanent, requiring no re-servicing. High heat resistance, smooth and silent operation, and the ability to endure
