INDUSTRIAL INJECTION MS-2218HX GM MAIN BEARINGS FOR 01-16 DURAMAX HX SERIES

2001-2016 Duramax Hx Series Main Bearings (Std +.001) These H and HX Clevite bearings were developed primarily for use in NASCAR type racing but are suitable for all types of competition engines.

H series bearings have a medium level of eccentricity, high crush and rod bearings have a hardened steel back and thin overlay. These bearings also have enlarged chamfers for greater crankshaft fillet clearance and are made without flash plating for better seating.

The HX series bearings have and .001 extra clearance

The biggest benefit of coated bearings is preventing damage during cold starts and events where oil starvation is evident. Starting your car is almost the worst thing you can do as the oil has had time to drain out of the engine back into the pan.

The oil is cold and thicker and takes time to get circulated throughout the engine, including to the crank bearings.

The added dry film lubricant coating acts as a barrier between the bearing surface and the crank journal. Other benefits are less friction and longer bearing and crank journal life.

The special coating also has moly and other ingredients that retain oil rather than repel it.

This coating process was developed for and is used in race engines, and applied to street and daily-use cars to help yield more durable engines.

Experience the pinnacle of performance with the INDUSTRIAL INJECTION MS-2218HX GM Main Bearings, specifically engineered for the 2001-2016 Duramax Hx Series. Designed primarily for high-stakes racing and competitive engines, these Clevite bearings cater to enthusiasts who demand the utmost reliability and efficiency from their powertrains.

The H series bearings feature a balanced medium level of eccentricity and high crush, maximizing contact with the crankshaft while maintaining optimal clearance. Building on this foundation, the HX series adds an extra .001 clearance, promoting seamless lubrication flow under even the most demanding conditions. Constructed with a hardened steel back and a thin overlay, these bearings deliver exceptional strength while ensuring lightweight performance.

A standout feature of these bearings is their enlarged chamfers, meticulously designed for increased crankshaft fillet clearance and enhanced oil flow, crucial for protecting critical engine components during aggressive starts and racing scenarios. The lack of flash plating provides better seating, further optimizing performance.

One of the most significant advantages of the coated bearings is their ability to mitigate damage during cold starts and instances of oil starvation. The added dry film lubricant coating acts as an essential barrier, reducing friction and preventing wear. With moly and other key ingredients in the coating, these bearings actively retain oil rather than repel it, ensuring consistent lubrication right from the moment the engine roars to life.

Ideal for both race engines and daily driven vehicles, the INDUSTRIAL INJECTION MS-2218HX GM Main Bearings set a new standard for durability and performance, making them a must-have for any serious engine builder. Each set is sold complete, offering everything needed for an unparalleled upgrade to engine reliability and performance. Embrace the power of innovation and elevate your engine like never before.
