Main bearing
A main bearing is a bearing in a piston engine which holds the crankshaft in place and allows it to rotate within the engine block.
The number of main bearings per engine varies between engines, often in accordance with the forces produced by the operation of the engine. Main bearings are usually plain bearings or journal bearings, held in place by the engine block and bearing caps.
