Product Details
| Part Number | 771704 | 
| Product Name | Thermo King Bearing 771704 | 
| Material | Oilite (porous bronze impregnated with oil) | 
| Type | Self-lubricating plain (sleeve) bearing | 
| Compatibility | Thermo King refrigeration components and transport refrigeration assemblies — confirm fitment with West Texas Thermo King service | 
Efficiency & Sustainability
Oilite bearings like Thermo King Bearing 771704 support energy-efficient operation by reducing frictional losses in shafts and fans. This passive lubrication approach aligns with fuel-efficient cooling strategies for diesel-driven and Diesel Direct Electric units and contributes to longer component life cycles, reducing waste and replacement frequency. For Smart Reefer SR-4 and CARB Evergreen–compliant operations, OEM-grade components help maintain regulatory and performance expectations.
Installation & Maintenance Tips
Install using OEM-approved tolerances and fasteners. Use authorized Thermo King clamps or retainers when required and verify shaft alignment before commissioning. Inspect bearing surfaces and housings during scheduled service intervals and replace bearings showing wear or contamination. Confirm part 771704 fitment with certified technicians at West Texas Thermo King to ensure proper installation.
Real-World Applications
Thermo King Bearing 771704 serves in reefer trailers, refrigerated trucks, terminal refrigeration equipment, and other transport refrigeration assemblies where a self-lubricating plain bearing is preferred for low-speed, continuous-duty applications. It helps maintain steady temperature control for perishable loads across regional runs and long-haul routes. Available for installation and service in Amarillo, Lubbock, Odessa, and throughout West Texas.
Backed by Thermo King’s engineering and supported by certified technicians at West Texas Thermo King, this component delivers lasting performance and uptime assurance for fleet operations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is Thermo King Bearing 771704 compatible with Precedent-series units?
A: Compatibility varies by assembly and year; confirm fitment for Precedent S-610M and S-610DE units with West Texas Thermo King service to ensure correct application.
Q: Does this bearing require regular lubrication?
A: No. As an Oilite bearing, it provides self-lubrication through its impregnated bronze matrix, reducing routine lubrication needs under normal operating conditions.
Q: How does this bearing affect temperature control accuracy?
A: Properly installed bearings maintain shaft alignment and reduce vibration, which supports consistent compressor and fan performance and stable temperature control.
