ACL Bearings 6B8262HX-STD Race Series Connecting Rod Bearing Set HX Extra Clearance Toyota 1GR-FE V6

The ACL Race Series 6B8262HX-STD is a performance connecting rod bearing set designed for the Toyota 1GR-FE 3956cc V6 engine. These Trimetal race bearings are engineered for builds that demand increased oil clearance, making them a popular choice for performance and high-RPM applications.

The HX designation indicates these bearings feature a wall thickness that is .0005" (0.013mm) thinner than the standard H-STD set, providing an extra .001" (0.025mm) of oil clearance on a standard-size journal. This increased clearance supports superior lubrication film formation under high-load and high-RPM operating conditions.

ACL Race Series Key Features:

• Trimetal construction — unique combination of design, metallurgy, and engineering for high-performance endurance
• High-strength overlay plate with reduced thickness for improved fatigue properties
• Hardened steel backs on all rod bearings to improve support of the bearing lining and assist with retention in the housing
• Elimination of flash plating on the back of the bearings to improve heat transfer and maximize grip between bearing and housing
• Increased eccentricity to compensate for bore distortion at high RPM and assist in formation of hydrodynamic oil films
• HX extra clearance — .001" additional oil clearance versus standard H-STD bearings on a standard journal
• Standard size (STD) — fits unground, factory-spec crankshaft journals
• Available for mixing with H-STD shells to fine-tune oil clearance (maximum shell difference: .0005"/.013mm)

ACL Race Series bearings are recognized throughout the motorsports world and have been standard components in championship-winning race engines across drag racing, NASCAR, IHRA, NHRA, and sport compact competition. The 6B8262HX-STD set is sold as a complete connecting rod bearing set for all cylinders in the applicable engine.
