What is the significance of the .040 size?

The .040 designation indicates that these bearings are 0.040 inches undersize compared to the standard size. This is used when the crankshaft journals have been machined down to correct for wear or damage.

What is the bimetal aluminum silicon base material?

This construction uses a combination of aluminum and silicon, offering good bearing properties for wear resistance and load-carrying capacity in engine applications.

Are these bearings sold individually or as a set?

This product is a set of connecting rod bearings, typically including enough bearings to replace all connecting rod bearings in the specified engine.
