BMW B48 / B47 / N47 Aluminium Balance Shaft Plug

Upgrade your BMW engine with the STROM Motorsports B48, B47 & N47 Aluminium Balance Shaft Plug, a durable and reusable replacement for the factory plastic balance shaft plug.

Manufactured from 6061 aluminium, this upgraded balance shaft plug is designed to eliminate the risk associated with the original plastic component degrading over time and potentially allowing plastic material to fall into the engine.

Designed as a direct replacement for BMW part number 11117797932, it is suitable for BMW B48, B47 and N47 engines, as well as additional compatible BMW engine applications.

6061 Aluminium Upgrade

The factory BMW balance shaft plug is manufactured from plastic, which can deteriorate as it ages and is repeatedly exposed to engine heat and oil.

The STROM replacement is manufactured from 6061 aluminium, providing a durable solution that will not degrade in the same way as the original plastic component.

This makes it an excellent upgrade during an engine rebuild, balance shaft service, timing work or preventative engine maintenance.

Dual O-Ring Sealing

Each balance shaft plug features a dual O-ring design for improved sealing.

The two sealing points provide additional protection against oil leakage while allowing the plug to remain removable and serviceable.

Reusable Design

Unlike a disposable factory-style component, the STROM balance shaft plug features spring-loaded retaining plungers and is designed to be fully removable and reusable.

When servicing or rebuilding the engine in the future, the aluminium plug can be removed and reinstalled using new O-rings.
