The Honda 13421-PT0-003 Balancer Shaft Metal (No.1) is a genuine OEM component designed for BF115 and BF130 outboard motors. As a direct Honda OEM part, it is manufactured to the exact tolerances required by Honda's engineering specifications, ensuring proper fit within the balancer shaft assembly. Confirm your outboard's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda supersedes parts at serial breaks and more than one variant may cover these models.
Key Features
- Genuine Honda OEM Construction — sourced directly from Honda, this bearing metal is produced to the precise dimensional tolerances that keep the balancer shaft running within spec in BF115 and BF130 outboards.
- Exact OEM Replacement — this part installs directly in place of the original, with no reworking required to achieve proper bearing clearance and shaft alignment.
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda parts for the BF115 and BF130 are superseded at production serial breaks; always cross-reference your outboard's serial number with the fitment table to confirm part number 13421-PT0-003 is correct for your unit.
- Smooth Balancer Operation — a worn or damaged balancer shaft metal allows excessive play at the journal, leading to vibration, accelerated shaft wear, and potential bearing failure in the lower powerhead.
The balancer shaft metal is a plain bearing insert that supports the balancer shaft within the engine block of the outboard motor. It maintains the precise running clearance between the rotating shaft and its journal, allowing the balancer shaft to spin freely while absorbing radial loads. When this bearing metal wears beyond its service limit, clearances open up, oil film pressure drops, and the result is increased vibration, noise, and accelerated wear to the balancer shaft and the surrounding bore — making timely replacement essential to long powerhead life.
