Technical Specifications and Performance Details

The 4206DR camshaft bearing from Sealed Power is manufactured to exacting tolerances to ensure proper fit and function within the engine block housing bore. The housing bore dimensions range narrowly between 2.2528 and 2.2539 inches, providing a precise fit for the camshaft bearing. Oil clearance is critical for lubrication and wear prevention, and this bearing maintains an oil clearance between 0.0030 and 0.0064 inches, supporting effective oil film formation during engine operation.

With an overall length of up to 1.0100 inches, the bearing is designed to accommodate the camshaft's rotational forces while maintaining structural integrity. The standard shaft diameter compatibility between 2.1255 and 2.1265 inches ensures a secure interface with the camshaft journal. Wall thickness of up to 0.0620 inches contributes to durability under high-stress conditions typical in Dodge D250, D350, W250, and W350 models.
