ACL Duraglide Reinforced Main Bearings
Designed to withstand higher loads than OEM parts, these ACL Duraglide bearings are made from 3 layers of hardened steel, copper and nickel. This "trimetal" composition substantially lowers friction, and thus reduces the operating temperatures while providing superior lubrication.
To help engine builders optimise clearances for their specific applications, ACL provides a range of different bearing sizes for standard crankshaft journal sizes :
- STD: Bearing thickness is precision finished to provide a nominal clearance based on OEM specifications. Suitable for all applications using crankshafts finished to OEM specifications.
- 001 / .025: Providing a reduction of .001" (0.025mm) of clearance over the STD size bearings. Suitable for adjusting clearance to compensate for surface reconditioning (polishing) of crankshaft journals or the use of low viscosity lubricants.
