Abstract
A hybrid module shaft assembly includes a rotational axis, a housing with a tubular portion, a shaft extending through the tubular portion, a first seal, a first ball bearing, and a plain bearing. The tubular portion has a first distal end arranged on an engine side of the housing, and a second distal end arranged on a transmission side of the housing. The first seal is arranged to seal the shaft to the first distal end, and the first ball bearing is disposed on the engine side adjacent to the first seal to position the shaft in the tubular portion. The plain bearing is arranged at the second distal end to position the shaft.
