Clevite CB-1869P(8) P-Series High Performance Rod Bearing Set

The Clevite CB-1869P(8) is a premium P-Series connecting rod bearing set engineered for high-performance and racing applications. These bearings feature Clevite's legendary TriMetal construction designed to exceed OEM standards while providing superior protection against friction and wear in demanding engine builds.

P-Series Performance Features:

• Maximum eccentricity design for severe high-RPM applications where extreme rod bore close-in occurs
• Hardened steel back construction for added strength and resistance to fretting
• High crush engineering ensures maximum bearing retention in the rod bore
• Reduced overlay thickness prevents overlay fatigue and "hen tracking" under race conditions
• Optimized for engines experiencing near full parting line to parting line shaft contact
• Compatible with aluminum connecting rods

When to Use P-Series Bearings:

P-Series rod bearings are specifically designed for extremely high RPM racing engines where severe rod bore distortion causes significant bearing loading patterns. These bearings excel in applications where standard bearings show evidence of excessive contact area from parting line to parting line. The greater eccentricity helps maintain proper oil clearances and bearing contact patterns under extreme operating conditions.

Quality Construction:

Clevite bearings utilize premium materials and precision manufacturing to protect vital engine components from the harmful effects of friction. The TriMetal construction provides an optimal balance of strength, conformability, and wear resistance for extended service life even under punishing racing conditions.

Important Ordering Information:

This bearing set includes one pair (two bearing halves for one connecting rod). For a complete engine rebuild, order one set per cylinder. For example, a 6-cylinder engine requires a quantity of 6 sets, and a V8 engine requires 8 sets.
