Clevite CB-965P-10 P-Series Connecting Rod Bearing - Set

The Clevite CB-965P-10 is a high-performance P-Series connecting rod bearing set designed for demanding engine applications. Engineered to meet or exceed OEM standards, these premium bearings deliver exceptional strength, durability, and protection against the harmful effects of friction in high-RPM environments.

P-Series Performance Features:

• Maximum eccentricity design for extreme RPM applications
• Hardened steel backing for superior strength and fretting resistance
• High crush construction ensures maximum bearing retention
• Reduced overlay thickness prevents overlay fatigue and hen tracking
• Ideal for engines experiencing severe rod bore close-in at high RPM
• Tri-metal construction with lead-tin-copper overlay

Application Guidance: P-Series bearings are specifically recommended for engines operating at extremely high RPMs where standard bearings show nearly full parting line to parting line shaft contact. These bearings address rod bearing oil starvation issues, typically indicated by surface polishing, smearing, and discoloration concentrated at the bearing's axial center.

Each set includes two bearing halves for one connecting rod. For a complete 6-cylinder engine rebuild, order quantity of 6 sets. For 8-cylinder engines, order 8 sets.

Note: P-Series bearings feature unique core part numbers distinct from standard passenger car applications and represent Clevite's original high-performance bearing series with proven racing heritage.
