Clevite 1, Tri-Metal Connecting Rod Bearings fit the following Acura models: 1590CC 1.6L D16A1 DOHC 16 Valve 4 cylinder 1986-1989, 1590CC 1.6L D16Y8 V-TEC SOHC Honda 4 cylinder 1997-2000.
Clevite Connecting Rod Bearing part number CB1461P (Standard) is a steel backed copper-lead matrix with overlay.
Clevite Tri-Metal 1, Connecting Rod Bearings combine the strength of a copper-lead matrix (Bi-Metal) layer with steel backing and an electro-plated Micro Babbitt metal as an overlay.
The steel backing on the Clevite Tri-Metal 1, Connecting Rod Bearings provides strength and durability.
The copper-lead matrix overlay provides the conformability and Load Capacity.
The Third layer - Micro-Babbitt overlay provides the critical surface Embedability Conformability and has far more forgiveness than bi-metal.
This ideal design has properties not found in many original equipment bearings.
In most cases, Clevite Tri-Metal 1 Bearings are an upgrade over a stock bearing, or three times better.
It takes Three Layers to be Number One, and Clevite 1 Tri-Metal Bearings are it!
Engineering quality engine bearings involves a number of interdependent factors.
Here is how Clevite 1s Tri-Metal cast copper-lead matrix compares to bi-metal bearings on the most important of these factors: Seizure Resistance: Tri-Metal bearings have significantly greater seizure resistance than bi-metal bearings.
Load Capacity: Tri-Metal bearings can withstand much higher loads for longer periods of time as compared to bi-metal bearings.
Embeddability Conformability: The overlay on a Tri-Metal.
