ACL Reinforced Thrust Bearings
Designed to withstand high RPM, temperatures and load, these high strength bearings are manufactured by ACL 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.
Available on selected applications, Calico's CT-1 coating provides intermittent dry lubrication, unaffected by dust or dirt, which helps to reduce friction and abrasive wear. It is specially designed to withstand the extreme conditions of modern high-performance engines.
These bearings, also called thrust washers, are sold in standard sizes and, depending on the part number, in repair sizes.
