Engine Bearing

These high-performance, high-quality engine bearings were made possible by the latest technologies, which were obtained through the dedication of Taiho to tribology, and by the integrated system that comprises material research.

Taiho's Micro grooved bearings are highly innovative, high-performance engine bearings with fine grooves provided in the bearing inner wall. These bearings break the tradition of absolute flatness in bearings.(Bearing made under license from MIBA, Austria)

Types of Taiho Engine bearing

•    Main Bearing
•    Con Rod Bearing
•    Thrust Washer

MGB

MGB (Micro-Grooved Bearings) are engine bearings that have numerous shallow circumferential grooves covering their surface (Pitch: 0.1 to 1.0 mm; Groove depth: 1 to 10µm), much like a music record disk.
Notwithstanding the conventional concept in that the surface should be smooth, the Microgrooves greatly contributes to engine noise and vibration reduction. MGB have been mounted in the Toyota Celsior for the first time, and have become popularly used for various other vehicle models.

Effects

MGB have various and superior performance characteristics and high potential, such as in vehicle comfortability improvement, environmental control solutions including low fuel consumption and light-weight vehicle realization.

   1. Silent performance improvement
   2. Fuel consumption reduction
   3. Starter size reduction
   4. Bearing width reduction
   5. Oil cooler elimination
