Clevite V-Series Rod Bearings

If you liked the results that you used to get with Vandervell bearings--especially their higher conformability--then you should love Clevite V-Series rod bearings, which basically duplicate the Vandervell items. Built on un-plated, hardened-steel backings for better dimensional accuracy and bore contact, they have low-to-medium eccentricity. The biggest difference between V-Series and other Clevite 77 bearings is their lead-indium surface alloy, which gives them that extra conformability. V-Series bearings are available in narrower versions to provide greater crank-fillet clearance, as well as in extra-clearance variations that provide an additional 0.001 or 0.002 in. of clearance.

Clevite V-Series Main Bearings

If you liked the results you used to get with Vandervell bearings--especially their higher conformability--then you should love Clevite V-Series main bearings. Built on unplated steel backings, for better dimensional accuracy and bore contact, they have low-to-medium eccentricity. The biggest difference between V-Series and other Clevite 77 bearings is their lead-indium surface alloy, which gives them that extra conformability. Unlike Vandervell main bearings, Clevite V-Series main-bearing sets use a single-piece thrust bearing, so you don't need separate, assembled thrust bearings. Extra-clearance variations are available to provide an additional 0.001 or 0.002 in. of clearance.

Clevite P-Series Main Bearings

Clevite P-Series main bearings are the oldest members of the Clevite 77 bearing family and are intended for high-revving engines. To compensate for the high-load factors and distortion in these engines, these bearings have higher eccentricity and a high crush factor. P-Series bearings are constructed of tri-metal cast copper lead. They have a steel back for support, a cast copper lead lining to withstand the loads of engine operation, and an electroplated babbit overlay on the running surface to provide searing surface qualities. In addition, the oil grooves on most applications extend all the way around both halves for better oiling. Clevite P-Series main bearings are an ideal design, producing a degree of conformability, embedability, slipperiness, and fatigue resistance, not found in original equipment and competitive bimetal bearings.

Clevite M-Series Main Bearings

Clevite's M-Series main bearings are special-purpose items. They have a nominal 0.006 in. thick babbit layer on hardened-steel backings and are intended for engines that have severe crankshaft deflections. They have enlarged chamfers and, for some applications, both the oil holes and the oil grooves are enlarged.

Clevite Coated V-Series Main Bearings

Clevite engine bearings have helped power every single NASCAR champion since 1948 to Victory Lane, setting the pace for quality and reliability in the most demanding of settings. Their V-Series main bearings typically have low to medium eccentricity and a hardened steel back with a high crush for better seating and retention. They also do not have flash plating on the steel back to provide better dimensional accuracy and bore contact, using a lead-indium overlay which offers better conformability than lead-tin copper overlay with slightly reduced wear resistance. For daily drivers, and racers on tracks around the country, Clevite continues to be the brand of choice for engine builders with the coated V-Series main bearings best suited to match their application.
