Clevite 77 Bearings - Main Engine Bearing Set - D17 Engine
Clevite® engine bearings have an extensive, long-standing history with
racing. Our Clevite product has been winning NASCAR®-sanctioned races
since 1948, and is the exclusive bearing of NASCAR Performance.
We offer the most extensive line of performance engine bearings in the
market. Our range of performance engine bearings is designed to provide
winning results even in the most demanding applications. Our
involvement in INDY, NASCAR, ARCA, NHRA and IHRA racing as well as
other forms of motorsports have proven Clevite to be the leaders in
engine bearing technology both on the track and off.
Since our development of the first precision insert-type
bearing in 1929, Clevite engine bearings have set the pace for
engineering quality. Clevite engine bearings are built above industry
standards for strength and durability. The majority of Clevite
performance engine bearings utilize a superior TriMetal™ design first
developed by Clevite 50 years ago and perfected over time. This design
incorporates the strength of a copper-lead alloy layer on a precision
steel back and finally, a precision electroplated white metal "babbitt"
surface layer. TriMetal is an ideal design, producing a degree of
conformability, embedability, slipperiness and fatigue resistance, not
found in many original equipment and competitive bi-metal bearings. [Selecting Performance Bearings]
All Clevite engine bearings manufactured by us are color coded for
quick and positive identification of undersizes. The possibility of
confusion or errors in installation is virtually eliminated by checking
the color code on the side of each bearing.
The exclusive Clevite® TriArmor™ engine bearings feature the
industry's only engine moly/graphite treatment. This sophisticated
blend, in a low friction PTFE polymer base, offers extraordinary
protection and lubricity. Enhanced wear characteristics increase
bearing life in race engines and high performance street engines.
[TriArmor™ Link]
Now, high performance engine builders can enjoy the strength and
durability of the legendary Clevite® TriMetal™ bearing construction
coupled with the latest in coating technology - right out of the box.
It's no wonder that Clevite is used more often than any other bearings
in cars worldwide and in most race cars. In addition, Clevite has been
in most winning engines at Indianapolis and NASCAR. And that's why,
year after year, quality engines everywhere turn on Clevite bearings.
