Ingersoll Rand OEM 97333173 SS5 Compressor Connecting Rod
The connecting rod attaches to the crankshaft and compressor pump piston. This is a two piece design. When the crankshaft spins, it moves the rod up and down, therefore moving the pistons and creating pressurized air.
Lubrication dippers are integral to the connectic rod and are not able to come loose, this ensures proper oil delivery and lubrication on each stroke.
