A5411310617 Connecting Rod for Mercedes-Benz Actros

What does a compressor connecting rod do?

This compressor connecting rod functions as the vital link within the air brake compressor, joining the crankshaft to the piston to convert rotary motion into the compression stroke. Built with heavy-duty grade materials, it ensures stable air output and structural integrity under high-pressure operating conditions within the pneumatic system.

Compatible Mercedes-Benz Actros models and engines

This component is specifically engineered for Mercedes-Benz Actros MP2 / MP3 trucks featuring OM 501 LA, OM 501 LA.III, and OM 501 LA.III/1 engines. It is also compatible with various configurations such as the 2644 LS, 1841 LS, and 2648 K models to ensure precise fitment in heavy commercial vehicle applications.

Installation and maintenance guidance

For workshop technicians performing compressor overhauls, it is essential to inspect the rod for any signs of excessive play or wear on the bearing surfaces. Ensuring correct installation and lubrication is critical to prevent oil consumption issues or irregular air pressure delivery in the braking circuit.

Selection and troubleshooting

Maintaining the integrity of these internal components helps prevent catastrophic failure of the compressor assembly. Consult your authorized distributor to confirm exact fitment for your specific engine configuration.
