ABSTRACT:
A connecting rod or similar machine component comprising an assembly of two seperable parts having a spherical or cylindrical bearing surface provided therebetween. The parts comprising the assembly are manufactured from a ductile material, i.e., brass, aluminum or any alloy thereof. The two seperable parts are aligned by providing the confronting surfaces of the respective parts' first and second sides with intermeshing serrations extending in generally linearly, angularly disposed paths. When the parts are assembled, the intermeshing serrations on the parts' first side coact with the serrations on the parts' other side to create a wedging relationship therebetween whereby preventing lateral and lengthwise displacement of the bearing parts relative to each other.
