What does '0.010 inch undersize' mean for these bearings?

This means the bearings are manufactured to be 0.010 inches smaller in diameter than a standard-sized bearing. This is typically used when the engine's crankshaft has been machined down by 0.010 inches to correct wear or damage.

What is the primary function of main bearings?

Main bearings support the crankshaft within the engine block. They create a low-friction surface that allows the crankshaft to rotate smoothly while maintaining proper oil clearance for lubrication.

Are these bearings sold individually or as a set?

This product is a main bearing set, meaning it includes all the necessary main bearings to service the crankshaft for the specified Perkins engine models.

About this part

Product Details

Clevite is a well-known name in engine bearings, and this Main Bearing Set is a solid option for your Perkins engine rebuild. This set is specifically sized at 0.010 inch undersize, which is important if you're machining your crankshaft to match.

These bearings are built to handle the demands of your engine's rotating assembly. They are designed to provide a strong, reliable interface between your crankshaft and the engine block, helping to ensure smooth operation and longevity. Proper bearing clearance is critical for oil flow and reducing friction, and this set helps you achieve that when paired with a machined crankshaft.
