Crankshaft Thrust Plate
Mitsubishi FUSO®

The Crankshaft Thrust Plate, also known as the Thrust Washer, is a small but important part of a commercial truck's engine. It is located at the rear of the engine block and is responsible for controlling the axial movement of the crankshaft. The Thrust Plate is designed to withstand the force generated by the engine's combustion process and prevent the crankshaft from moving forward or backward. Without the Crankshaft Thrust Plate, the engine's crankshaft would be free to move back and forth, causing damage to other engine components and reducing the engine's overall performance. The Thrust Plate is made of high-quality materials to ensure durability and longevity, and is an essential part of any commercial truck's engine. Proper maintenance and replacement of the Thrust Plate is crucial to ensure the engine's smooth operation and longevity.
