Have a machining-related question? We have the answer. Check out our FAQs below to learn more about our company and services.

  • What warranties do you offer?

    At Effingham Regrinding Inc, we offer dependable crankshaft machining and grinding services. As a top-quality machine shop, we warranty that our products are machined to the OEM tolerance allowed. Once installed, our warranty is null and void.

  • What are the advantages of Babbiting old bearings?

    We offer excellent rebabbitting services. The biggest advantage of Babbitting old bearings is being able to keep the original part with the motor by modifying it to an aftermarket bearing insert.

  • What services does Effingham Regrinding Inc offer?

    Effingham Regrinding Inc offers Babbitting services, camshaft regrinding services, crankshaft regrinding services, and connecting rod reconditioning services. We also have an array of engine parts available.

  • What is the difference between lead and tin Babbiting?

    Lead-based Babbitting has high thermal conductivity and excellent conformity. Tin-based Babbitting provides low friction resistance and low wear, flows well under pressure, and has high thermal connectivity. At Effingham Regrinding Inc, we use tin-based metal for rebabbitting because it is a harder and more durable substance.

  • Can you regrind a roller camshaft?

    Yes, we offer exceptional camshaft regrinding services. Contact us today to learn more!

  • Can you resurface camshafts?

    Alongside our camshaft regrinding services, we can also resurface camshafts. We can rebuild most camshafts if the lobes are worn, but camshafts with excessive wear cannot be rebuilt. It depends on the exact specifications for your engine as to whether or not we can regrind it.

  • How is a crankshaft ground?

    At Effinghamn Regrinding Inc, we provide reliable crankshaft grinding services. To grind a crankshaft, a crankshaft is spun on a crankshaft grinding machine to remove enough materials from both the main and crankpin journals to make them round again.

  • How do I know if my crank needs to be turned?

    Our crankshaft machining services are top-of-the-line, but how do you know when it's time to utilize them? Find evidence of wear or scratches on the crank or on the rod journals by turning the surface down and adding a smaller journal diameter to correct the clearance. This will help with bearing clearance and achieving proper oil pressure. Contact a professional at Effingham Regrinding Inc for guidance!

  • Do we modify camshaft profiles?

    No, we mostly do OEM restoration to camshafts. For engines older than 1985, we do some factory performance grinds. Call us today for the camshaft regrinding you need.
