Unleash the Potential of Your LS Engine with Precision-Engineered Rod Bearings

In the realm of high-performance engines, LS rod bearings play a crucial role in ensuring optimal performance and longevity. As a leading provider of engine components, we understand the significance of these essential parts and are dedicated to delivering the highest quality LS rod bearings for your demanding applications.

Essential Considerations for Choosing the Right LS Rod Bearings

Material Composition: The material composition of your LS rod bearings directly impacts their durability and performance. High-quality bearings are typically made from tri-metal or copper-lead, offering superior strength and longevity compared to lower-grade alternatives.

Clearance Specifications: Proper bearing clearance is crucial for minimizing friction and wear. Insufficient clearance can lead to premature failure, while excessive clearance can result in oil pressure loss and reduced engine performance.

Size and Compatibility: Ensure that the LS rod bearings you choose correspond to the specific dimensions of your engine and connecting rods. Improper sizing can lead to fitment issues and potential damage.

Bearing Material	Clearance (in)	Engine Compatibility
Tri-Metal	0.0025-0.0035	LS1, LS2, LS3, LS6, LS7
Copper-Lead	0.0015-0.0025	LS Vortec, LQ4, LQ9, LY6
