SUZUKI BEARING 09262-35023 REC09262-35052

Function and technical context

This bearing works on the internal rotating assemblies of the outboard motor, absorbing radial and axial loads to ensure smooth and precise rotation of the shafts and gears. Within naval mechanics, bearings are critical elements in power transmission and distribution systems: they support the forces generated during engine operation and reduce friction between moving components. A damaged bearing causes abnormal vibrations, metallic noise, accelerated wear of adjacent parts and even blocking of the affected shaft, which can leave the boat without propulsion. Manufactured to Suzuki engine specifications, this bearing ensures the exact dimensional fit required for correct fitment on DT series models.

When to replace this part?

The most common symptoms that indicate bearing wear in outboard motors are: rubbing or grinding noise during starting or acceleration, unusual vibration in the engine block or tail, and excessive play in the shaft that houses the bearing. It is recommended to check the condition of the bearings during each seasonal maintenance or whenever work is done on the transmission, crankshaft or distribution area. Replacing the bearing preventively in the event of any sign of wear prevents major breakdowns during navigation and protects the mechanical components in its environment.
