What does it mean that this bearing set is 0.010 inch undersize?

An undersize bearing set, like this 0.010 inch set, is used when the crankshaft has been machined down to a smaller diameter. This allows the new bearings to properly fit and maintain the correct oil clearance for the reconditioned crankshaft.
