While the connecting rod 4943979 has a 3969562 rod bearing and a</span>&nbsp;4893693<span style="color:inherit;">&nbsp;rod bearing, the connecting rod 3901569 has two 3969562 rod bearings. In the first one, the flanges of the rod bearing touch because they are on opposite sides, and in the second one, the flanges do not touch because they are placed on the same side of the rod bearing. Therefore, when making a repair, you should bear in mind the fact that you will need to order three times as many 3969562 rod bearings as the 4893693 ones.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size:18px;"><br></span></p><p><span style="color:rgb(89, 89, 89);font-size:18px;">Una de las cuestiones que más confunde a nuestros clientes a la hora de hacer un pedido para la reparación de un&nbsp;motor,&nbsp;es las diferencia entre bielas y casquillos de la serie&nbsp;Cummins 6B. Mientras que la biela 4943979 lleva un casquillo 3969562 y otro 4893693, la biela 3901569 lleva dos casquillos&nbsp;3969562. En la primera, las pestañas del casquillo se tocan porque están en lados opuestos, y en la segunda, las pestañas no se tocan porque están colocadas en el mismo lado del casquillo. Por lo tanto, a la hora de hacer una reparación, debe tener en cuenta que deberá pedir el triple de casquillos 3969562 que de casquillos 4893693.</span></p></div>
