What does '0.025mm Oversized' mean for these rod bearings?

This means the bearings are slightly larger than the standard size by 0.025 millimeters. They are intended for use when the crankshaft journals have been machined down (undersized) to a specific tolerance, and these bearings help restore the correct clearance.

What is the benefit of the high-performance coating on these bearings?

The high-performance coating helps to reduce friction between the bearing and the crankshaft journal. It also aids in oil distribution and can offer improved protection against wear, especially in demanding engine conditions.

Are these bearings suitable for a stock engine rebuild?

While these are high-performance bearings with a coating, they can be used in a stock rebuild if the crankshaft journals are properly machined to accommodate the 0.025mm oversized size. They offer an added layer of protection and reliability.

Product Details

Doing an engine rebuild on your 1990-2001 Acura Integra, or maybe a Honda Accord (1984-1985), CR-V (1997-2001), or Prelude (1988-1990)? These high-performance rod bearings from ACL are a solid choice for getting your engine back in shape. They are designed to handle increased stress, making them a popular option when you're looking to improve your engine's reliability, especially if you're pushing it a bit harder than stock.

These bearings are 0.025mm oversized, which is important to note if you're re-honing your crankshaft journals. The 'HC' in the part number signifies a high-performance coating, which helps reduce friction and improve oil flow. This coating can be especially beneficial in high-RPM or high-load situations, helping to protect the bearing surface and extend its life. ACL is a well-known name in engine bearings, and this set is built to meet the demands of performance applications.

When you're installing these, make sure to follow the manufacturer's torque specifications precisely. It's also a good idea to have a clean work environment to prevent any debris from contaminating the new bearings. If you're unsure about any part of the installation process, it's always best to consult a professional mechanic.
