Taper/Land Ratio of compressor side thrust bearing for existing MET turbocharger is 4:1.
On the other hand, Taper/Land Ratio for the turbochargers designed after MET-SEII is 19:1 (LBC, which
is excellent in antifriction, is used as material) as standard.
From the viewpoint of productivity and a quick delivery response, the new LBC 19:1 thrust bearing will
be provided in after-sales service as soon as the present stock has run out about the conventional type.
Be carefull of replacement standard, which will be different from that of existing type as follows.
The conventional type bearing that has already been had can use continuance. There is no problem
in use.
Keep this paper with instruction manual.
