Product Details
Aluglide™ Connecting Rod Bearing Set by ACL®. Aluglide bearings provide a combination of moderate to high strength, good seizure resistance and excellent wear resistance. These bearings are ideally suited to general purpose applications (passenger cars and light commercial vehicles) where reliability and long service intervals are desirable. Aluglide bearings are highly preferred in modern import engines that have been designed for aluminum-based bearings as OE standard fitment.
Features
- Strength is engineered through targeted alloying
- No overlay means that the load is assumed directly by the alloy and transmitted through to the steel
- Alloy composition, casting and heat treatment methods develop exceptional toughness
- The tin phase of the alloy provides lubricity and low melting point liquid lubricant
- Aluminum tin-based alloys are essentially inert to known contaminants
- The toughness of the alloy ensures that the localized deformation does not compromise strength
