The bearings at the con rod small end or con rod eye are subject to extreme stresses and strains, especially in the case of large scale motors. Combustion pressures and operating loads afflict the slide bearings in the form of pressure and friction. The con rod bearings play a decisive role in the reduction of these loads, which is why an adequate temperature measurement is often needed.

Due to the extremely high forces which the con-rod eye is subjected to, temperature measurements within the bearing are expedient for a number of reasons, and frequently indispensable.
