What material are these Clevite con rod bearings made from?

These bearings are constructed from Clevite's BiMetal aluminum silicon material. This composition is 100% lead-free and engineered for durability and dependability.

How does the higher silicon content benefit my engine?

The 60% higher silicon content compared to competitive replacements helps to better condition the journal surfaces. This results in improved resistance to seizure and wear, contributing to a longer engine life.

Are these bearings a direct replacement for my engine?

Yes, these bearings are designed as a direct replacement for specific Volkswagen and Audi engines, including those with 1588cc, 1780cc, 1781cc, and 1984cc displacements. Always verify fitment for your specific vehicle.
