What does the '+1.0mm' size designation mean for these bearings?

The '+1.0mm' indicates that these bearings are 1.0 millimeter larger in diameter than a standard size bearing. This is typically used when the crankshaft journals have been machined undersize during an engine rebuild to ensure proper oil clearance.

What is the 'OD+.002in' specification referring to?

This refers to the housing bore of the bearing. It means the outer diameter of the bearing housing is .002 inches larger than a standard bearing. This is often specified to achieve the correct clearance when used with a crankshaft that has been machined.

What is the material of these connecting rod bearings?

These bearings are made with a bimetal construction, featuring an aluminum silicon base. This material is chosen for its good wear resistance and ability to conform to the crankshaft journal.
