The 61560020024 crankshaft Rdm‑1050 is a genuine SINOTRUK HOWO component engineered to convert the linear force of combustion into rotational torque with exceptional strength and precision. As the very core of the engine, this crankshaft belongs to the trusted Sinotruk howo parts family and is manufactured from high‑grade alloy steel through a forging process that ensures a dense, uniform grain structure. The 61560020024 unit is then precision‑machined, heat‑treated, and micro‑polished to achieve the exacting tolerances required for heavy‑duty diesel engines. Its robust construction withstands the extreme combustion pressures, torsional vibrations, and fatigue loads encountered in mining, construction, and long‑haul applications. Investing in this authentic component guarantees reliable power delivery, reduced vibration, and extended engine life.

The 61560020024 crankshaft is forged from a premium micro‑alloyed steel (42CrMo4 equivalent) which provides an exceptional strength‑to‑weight ratio. The forging process aligns the grain flow with the crankpin and main journal contours, maximizing fatigue resistance. After rough machining, the crankshaft undergoes a controlled heat treatment to achieve a core hardness of 220‑280 HB, while the journal surfaces are induction‑hardened to 52‑58 HRC for superior wear resistance. All fillets are deep‑rolled to induce compressive residual stresses, dramatically increasing fatigue life under cyclic bending and torsion.
Each 61560020024 crankshaft is precision‑ground to tolerances within 0.01 mm on main and crankpin journals. Oil passages are cross‑drilled and carefully deburred to ensure unrestricted lubrication. The crankshaft is then dynamically balanced to G2.5 grade, minimizing vibration and ensuring smooth engine operation even at maximum rpm. Every unit undergoes 100% magnetic particle inspection to verify freedom from cracks. This meticulous process guarantees that the crankshaft will withstand the high cylinder pressures and speeds of modern Howo diesel engines.

The 61560020024 crankshaft is a direct OEM replacement for the engines used in Howo heavy‑duty trucks, including the widely used WD615 series (Euro‑2 to Euro‑5), the MC11 and MC13 engines in T7H and C7H models, as well as the D10 engines. It forms the backbone of the engine’s rotating assembly, converting the reciprocating motion of the pistons into rotational torque that drives the transmission and ultimately the wheels. A precision‑ground crankshaft ensures minimal bearing clearance, reducing friction and maximizing power output.
In chassis applications, the crankshaft’s reliability directly impacts vehicle uptime. A failure can lead to catastrophic engine damage and lengthy downtime. By using the genuine 61560020024, you ensure that the crankshaft meets all original design specifications for strength, balance, and durability. It is also essential for engines equipped with front or rear PTO drives that derive power directly from the crankshaft nose.
During engine overhaul, always replace the crankshaft bearings and thrust washers with new ones. Check the crank nose for wear if the vibration damper was loose. Use a new crankshaft bolt and torque to specification.
Correct installation of the 61560020024 crankshaft is critical to ensure engine reliability and long service life. Follow these steps:
Thoroughly clean the engine block main bearing saddles. Inspect the block for cracks. Install new main bearings with correct oil clearance. Lubricate bearings generously with assembly lube.
Carefully lower the crankshaft into the block. Install main bearing caps in the correct orientation and torque in stages to the specified value (e.g., 200 Nm + 90°). Rotate the crankshaft to check for smooth operation.
Measure crankshaft end‑play using a dial gauge (spec 0.10‑0.30 mm). Install new rear main seal. After assembling the engine, prime the oil system before start‑up.
A worn or damaged crankshaft can lead to engine noise, vibration, and eventual failure. Common signs that replacement is needed include:
If any of these symptoms are observed, immediate replacement with a genuine 61560020024 crankshaft is recommended. Continuing to operate with a damaged crankshaft can result in connecting rod failure and complete engine destruction.
Forged alloy steel and fillet rolling provide exceptional fatigue life, handling peak cylinder pressures without failure.
Precision‑ground journals and superior hardness reduce bearing wear, extending overhaul intervals and lowering operating costs.
Dynamic balancing minimizes vibration, improving driver comfort and reducing stress on engine mounts and driveline components.
To maximize the service life of your 61560020024 crankshaft, follow these best practices:
By adhering to these guidelines, you ensure that the 61560020024 crankshaft performs optimally throughout its intended service interval.
Aftermarket crankshafts are often made from inferior materials with improper heat treatment and poor machining, leading to premature bearing failure or even breakage. The genuine 61560020024 is manufactured to the exact specifications of the original equipment, using premium forged steel and advanced heat treatment processes. Each crankshaft is 100% inspected for hardness, dimensional accuracy, and crack‑free integrity.
By choosing authentic SINOTRUK HOWO parts, you protect your investment and ensure your truck maintains its power, reliability, and resale value. The Sinotruk howo parts catalog includes a full range of engine and chassis components engineered for maximum durability. For fleet managers and owner‑operators who demand the best, the genuine 61560020024 is the only responsible choice.
The 61560020024 crankshaft is used across a wide range of Howo models: T7H, A7, and classic Howo‑7 series equipped with WD615, MC11, MC13, and D10 engines. Always verify the number of counterweights and the crank nose configuration (for vibration damper) using the service manual.
Each 61560020024 is individually wrapped in VCI paper and secured in a custom wooden crate to prevent damage during shipping. The package includes the crankshaft only; main bearings and thrust washers must be ordered separately.
Production of the 61560020024 takes place in IATF 16949 certified facilities, using precision forging lines and CNC grinding with in‑process gauging. Statistical process control ensures that dimensional variations are kept to a minimum, far exceeding the requirements of the original design. Every batch is accompanied by a material certificate and hardness test report, guaranteeing that the crankshafts delivered are identical to those fitted on new Howo trucks at the factory.
