ACL Mazda 3 Rod Bearings offers the combination of design, metallurgy and engineering. With these qualities they come together to deliver what drivers expect from high performance Trimetal engine bearings. These +.50 Race Series Bearings are designed to withstand higher RPM conditions.

Features

• High strength overlay plate with reduced thickness for improved fatigue properties.
• Hardened steel backs on all rod bearings to improve the support of the bearing lining and assist with bearing retention in the housing.
• Bearing Retention has been improved with Increased Crush.
• Elimination of flash plating on the back of the bearings to improve heat transfer through the bearings and to maximize the grip between the bearings and its housing.
• Increased eccentricity to compensate for bore distortion at high RPM and to assist in the formation of hydrodynamic oil films.
• Tight consistent wall tolerances to help you maintain consistent clearances.
• Enlarged ID chamfers on bearing edges where required to accommodate large fillet radius on performance crankshafts.
