Construction & Design:

The Clevite Con Rod Bearings feature a TriMetal design, which consists of a steel backing, an intermediate layer of copper-lead alloy, and a thin overlay of babbitt material. This combination provides an optimal balance of strength, conformability, and embedability. The steel backing offers structural support, while the copper-lead layer enhances load-carrying capacity and fatigue resistance. The babbitt overlay ensures excellent compatibility with crankshaft journals, reducing friction and wear.

Manufactured to rigorous quality standards, these bearings undergo precise machining and finishing processes to ensure tight tolerances and consistent thickness. This attention to detail guarantees a perfect fit and smooth operation within the engine’s connecting rod journals.

Installation & Fitment:

Designed as a direct replacement for original equipment bearings, the Clevite Con Rod Bearing Set installs easily without the need for modifications. Proper installation requires standard engine rebuilding procedures, including thorough cleaning of bearing surfaces and correct torque application on connecting rod caps. It is recommended to verify journal clearances and follow manufacturer specifications during installation to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
