ACL 5M8309HXOS2-STD Engine Bearings

The ACL 5M8309HXOS2-STD engine bearings are crafted for those who demand durability and performance in their engines. These high-performance Trimetal bearings are specifically designed for Subaru EJ20, EJ22, and EJ25 engines, particularly for thrust applications in the #5 position. With a focus on engineering excellence, these bearings are built to withstand the rigors of high RPM driving.

Features

  • High strength overlay plate with a reduced thickness that enhances fatigue properties, ensuring longevity even under stress.
  • Hardened steel backs on all rod bearings provide superior support for the bearing lining, enhancing retention within the housing.
  • Increased crush improves bearing retention, which is critical for maintaining performance during dynamic conditions.
  • Elimination of flash plating on the back promotes better heat transfer and maximizes the grip between the bearings and their housing.
  • Enhanced eccentricity compensates for bore distortion at high RPMs, aiding in the formation of hydrodynamic oil films.
  • 3/4 grooved main bearings optimize the load-carrying surface area and facilitate better oil flow to the connecting rod bearings.
  • Tight and consistent wall tolerances help maintain precise clearances, which is vital for performance engines.
  • Enlarged ID chamfers on bearing edges accommodate large fillet radii found on performance crankshafts.
