It's a tradition that we began in Australia more than 50 years ago: a commitment to innovative design, engineering and manufacturing excellence. Thus, we gained the distinction as primary designer and manufacturer of engine bearings for GM, Ford and Toyota.

Dedication to quality and dependability earned us QS9000 and TS 6949 Certifications, an honored and exceptional recognition by the car companies. We apply the same OEM engineering and manufacturing expertise to the replacement components we make for the world's engine technicians and builders. Quality is but one ACL aftermarket focus; service is another.

Aluglide & Duraglide Bearings

Aluglide rod and main bearings were developed for OEM engines and have the inherent physical properties perfectly suited for replacement applications. The proprietary composition is comprised of aluminum, tin and silicon. This metallurgy mix, combined with a steel backing, provides excellent characteristics such as strength, anti-seizure, anti-wear, embeddability and anti-corrosion.

ACL rod and main bearings also are available in Duraglide metallurgy, our tried and true tri-metal configuration. Cam bearings are available as full round and clinched butt construction. We also produce Race Series bearings for performance engines. Complete information on individual bearing lines is available in product brochures and bulletins from our North American Operations.

Please Note:

In a relatively short time since its introduction, Aluglide engine bearings have become a dominant factor in engine bearing materials. The combination of aluminum, tin and silicon creates an alloy with exceptional wear resistance, outstanding strength and excellent load-carrying characteristics. Our OEM customers use Aluglide exclusively, and it is becoming "the bearing of choice" among many aftermarket engine builders and technicians.

With Aluglide's increasing popularity and added benefits, we are reviewing the range of Duraglide bearings (copper/lead) and are converting to Aluglide (aluminum/tin/silicon) where it suits the application. Thus, depending on the application we are able to offer the most suitable bearing.
