CONN. ROD BEARING SET
Clevite CB-1266P-10 Rod Bearing For Navistar International:551 Diesel (1980-1988)
Most rod bearings are available either with or without dowel holes for use in aluminum rods. Both rods and mains have high crush for maximum retention, and a reduced overlay thickness to prevent overlay fatigue, sometimes referred to as hen tracking. Rod bearings use a hardened steel back for added strength and resistance to fretting. Extra clearance rod bearings are available for .001” additional clearance and select fitting. Use the P series rods where extremely high RPM’s cause severe rod bore close-in. This is typically indicated by nearly full parting line to parting line shaft contact with bearings having lesseccentricity. Use P-Series mains where higher eccentricity is desired to narrow bearing contact patterns and to provide increased oiling to rod bearings. Rod bearing oil starvation is typically indicated by polishing and smearing of the bearing surface, possibly accompanied by discoloration predominantly concentrated at the axial center of the bearings.
All Clevite CB Rod Bearings are sold as each (one bearing top and bottom shell per rod) unless the part number has a (*) suffix which indicates a set. Ie. CB123H(8) which would indicate a set of 8 bearings)
