Clevite MS889P10 Main Bearing Set .010 Undersize Continental F227 F242 F245

The Clevite MS889P10 is a P-Series tri-metal main bearing set engineered for Continental F227, F242, and F245 flathead 6-cylinder engines. This set features .010 inch crankshaft undersize dimensions for rebuilt crankshafts, making it ideal for engine rebuilds and high-performance applications in forklifts, industrial equipment, and agricultural machinery.

Tri-Metal Construction Benefits:

• Hardened precision steel backing provides exceptional strength and support
• Cast copper-lead alloy middle layer withstands extreme loads and operating conditions
• Electroplated babbitt overlay on running surface delivers superior conformability and embedability
• High crush factor ensures proper seating and retention in the engine block
• High eccentricity design accommodates bore distortion under load

P-Series Performance Features:

• Designed specifically for high-revving and demanding engine applications
• 360-degree oil grooves on most applications provide enhanced lubrication
• Superior seizure resistance—up to 40% better than bi-metal bearings
• Increased load capacity—over 60% higher than conventional bi-metal designs
• Excellent fatigue resistance for extended service life

Clevite P-Series bearings represent the most versatile replacement bearing option, suitable for heavy-duty use, motorsports, and street performance applications. This bearing set is the trusted choice for engine rebuilders seeking OE-quality components with enhanced durability and performance characteristics.
