5I7650 Plate-Thrust Camshaft — Cat 311 311B

This thrust plate is a critical component of the camshaft assembly, ensuring proper axial movement and support within the engine. It is manufactured to meet stringent OEM material and dimensional standards, providing superior wear resistance compared to a worn or damaged plate. Symptoms of a failing thrust plate include increased camshaft end play, audible knocking noises from the engine, and potential loss of oil pressure.

Failure Symptoms

The first sign of a worn thrust plate is often an increase in the camshaft's end play, which can manifest as a ticking or knocking sound from the engine. If ignored, this excessive movement can lead to premature wear on camshaft bearings and lobes, potentially affecting valve timing. Continued operation with a severely worn thrust plate risks damage to the camshaft and cylinder head assembly.

Installation Tip

Ensure the crankshaft and camshaft timing marks are accurately aligned before removing the old thrust plate to maintain correct engine timing. Avoid overtightening the camshaft retaining bolts, as this can distort the camshaft or damage the thrust plate seating surface.

Service Note

Inspect camshaft bearings and journals for wear, and check the camshaft gear for proper seating and retention.
