What is the main benefit of the increased silicon content in these bearings?

The higher silicon content helps to condition the crankshaft journal surfaces. This leads to improved resistance against seizure and wear, contributing to longer bearing and engine life.

Are these bearings suitable for a performance VR6 build?

These Clevite bearings are built with durability and wear resistance in mind, making them a solid choice for engine rebuilds. For specific high-performance applications, it's always best to consult with your engine builder.

What does 'Bi-Metal' mean for these engine bearings?

Bi-Metal bearings have a steel backing for strength and a bearing material (in this case, aluminum silicon) bonded to it. This construction provides a strong foundation with excellent running surfaces.

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 1995-2005 Volkswagen Golf, Jetta, Corrado, EuroVan, or Passat, a solid set of connecting rod bearings is crucial. These Clevite Bi-Metal rod bearings are built to handle the demands of the 2.7L VR6 engine, ensuring smooth operation and long life for your crankshaft and connecting rods.

Clevite uses a 100% lead-free aluminum silicon alloy in these bearings, and they've engineered them with 60% more silicon than many other replacement bearings. This advanced material composition helps to condition the journal surfaces they ride on, offering better resistance to seizure and wear. This means you can expect improved durability and dependability from your engine rebuild.
