Hot Rods Bearing - 27 x 35 x 17.8 KU

The case hardening on these Hot Rods connecting rod bearings adds a tough outer shell, which is crucial for handling the high loads found in an engine's big end. They also come with a silver coating, a detail that helps with initial oil distribution when you first fire up the engine. This combination of hardening and coating is designed to reduce friction and wear where it matters most, helping your engine run smoothly and reliably.

These bearings measure 27mm ID, 35mm OD, and have a width of 17.8mm. They are specifically designed for the connecting rod's big end, where the rod connects to the crankshaft. Proper bearing clearance is essential for oil film formation, which cushions the metal-on-metal contact and prevents premature wear. Using well-made bearings like these is a key step in any engine rebuild or repair to ensure longevity.
