Nissan For Nissan HR16 Hr15 Hr16 Hr16de Gasoline Engine Crankshaft 12201-ee02a 1.6l – OEM 12201EE02A

Product Overview: This nodular cast iron engine crankshaft is a direct-fit replacement component engineered for Nissan HR16 engines. Every unit is machined to factory dimensions so it can replace a fatigued, scored or bent original crankshaft as a straightforward bolt-in component.

Key Features: Each crankshaft is CNC-machined to original equipment dimensions, controlling main and rod journal diameters, journal run-out, stroke and thrust surfaces. The journals are ground, hardened and micro-polished so the bearing shells receive a consistent oil film and run quietly from the first start.

Vehicle Compatibility: This part is listed for Nissan, covering model families such as Automotive Engine Internal Rebuild Parts. Always check the engine code and the reference number on the original part against the listing to ensure the correct variant is supplied. Early and late builds of the same engine can use different revisions, so identification from the original component is essential.

Specifications: Key specifications: engine code HR16; material High Strength Nodular Cast Iron; size STD; condition New; warranty 12 Months, 12 Months. Additional dimensional and build data includes main journal diameter Standard Size Matches OEM and rod journal diameter Standard Size Matches OEM. The part is intended for replacement and repair use and is not a performance upgrade unless expressly described as such.

OEM / Reference Numbers: OEM and cross-reference numbers covered by this listing are 12201EE02A, 12201EE00A and 122011KA0A.

Applications: It is suited to engine rebuilds, in-frame overhauls, fleet servicing and the repair of engines that have suffered bearing seizure or crankshaft damage. The part is a sensible stock item for workshops that service this engine family regularly and want to minimise vehicle downtime. Fitting is common in passenger vehicles, utility vehicles and light commercial fleets running the listed engine.

Benefits / Replacement Information: Replacing a worn or damaged crankshaft restores smooth rotation, corrects vibration and bearing noise, and helps recover lost oil pressure. It removes the cost and downtime of reconditioning an original shaft, since the replacement arrives ready for installation in standard size. Correct balance and journal geometry also reduce the load on the bearings and oil pump, which supports longer service intervals for the rebuilt engine.

Installation or Fitment Notes: Check the part number, journal dimensions and cylinder block line bore before assembly begins. Install with new bearings, confirm oil clearance using plastigauge, and tighten the main and rod caps to factory torque and sequence. Keep the journals protected until the moment of assembly, and handle the shaft only with clean gloves to avoid surface damage.
