The wrist pin bearing is a wear item that absorbs the reciprocating forces between piston and rod, so refreshing it during a top end rebuild helps protect the cylinder and crank. It suits riders and mechanics servicing a 1998 Tiger Shark TS-R 1000.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eBuilt For Performance\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaged roller design for even load distribution across the wrist pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardened steel rollers and races for wear resistance under high rpm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecise bore and width tolerances for a direct fit in the rod small end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandles the reciprocating load cycles typical of two stroke PWC engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact, lightweight construction that adds minimal reciprocating mass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFits These Machines\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003efor Tiger Shark TS-R 1000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003efor Tiger Shark TS-R 1000 (1998)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eOn-The-Job Use\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop end rebuilds and piston replacement on the TS-R 1000 engine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting rod small end refresh during crank service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeasonal maintenance for personal watercraft used in fresh or salt water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShop and DIY rebuilds where factory spec tolerances are required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSpecs At A Glance\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWrist Pin Bearing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnecting Rod Small End\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMachine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTiger Shark TS-R 1000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel Year\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1998\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch4\u003eGood To Know\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e When should a wrist pin bearing be replaced? \u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e Replace it any time the top end is apart for a piston or ring service, or if the bearing shows roller wear, discoloration, or rough rotation.
