Description
Overview:
The Gudgeon Pin for Jap Model 5 Industrial Engine is a genuine Jap component designed to link the piston to the connecting rod, maintaining correct alignment and smooth motion under load. Manufactured from hardened steel for strength and wear resistance, it suits JAP 5/Model 5 stationary industrial engines where reliability is critical. Supplied as unused old stock (vintage), it may show cosmetic signs of age such as light tarnishing or surface film, which does not affect function once cleaned. With OEM number 12886, it is intended as an authentic, like-for-like replacement to help restore original operating clearances and reduce piston and small-end wear. Ideal for owners maintaining period equipment who need a correct-specification part to keep a classic JAP 5 running efficiently.
Key Features:
- Genuine Jap part for assured compatibility with JAP Model 5 engines
- OEM reference 12886 for correct fit and factory-spec performance
- Hardened steel construction for high strength and long service life
- Supports the piston/con-rod joint to minimise wear and noise
- Smooth-ground bearing surfaces to promote reliable lubrication film
- Suitable for restoring vintage engines while keeping components authentic
- Unused old stock; minor tarnish or storage marks may be present
- Straightforward replacement during piston or small-end bush service
Typical Applications:
Used in JAP Model 5 stationary industrial engines commonly found on vintage generators, pumps, compressors, small plant, and agricultural machinery. Suitable when rebuilding an engine, replacing a worn pin, addressing piston slap, or renewing small-end components to improve reliability and running smoothness in classic equipment.
Also known as:
Piston pin, wrist pin, piston gudgeon, small-end pin, piston connecting pin. These terms all refer to the same cylindrical pin that couples the piston to the connecting rod in two-stroke or four-stroke engines.
