Calico Rod Bearing Anti-Friction Coating Service

Model Number: 601811

This listing is an add on service for any rod bearing purchase. You must purchase rod bearings PLUS this Calico coated bearings to get Calico coated bearings. Please note that this service takes about 2 weeks after purchase for delivery to you. After you place the order, we send these out to Calico, then they send the bearings to you directly.

We are proud to offer Calico Anti-Friction Coatings (calicocoatings.com). Engine friction surface coatings have been shown to increase power by 2-3% due to the reduced friction compared to raw aluminum/steel faces.

Here is a snippet from Calico Coatings website:
Crew chiefs, engine builders and drivers rely on Calico's CT-1 Coating to reduce friction under the hood, providing them more speed. Engines overheating to the point of oil "breakdown" have avoided total destruction of expensive components such a blocks, rods and crankshafts due to the secondary lubrication provided by the .0002 and .0004 inch layer of CT-1.

We offer these coatings on a custom order basis, and it typically takes two weeks for bearing or piston sets to be coated and shipped to you. We make it easy for you to purchase a set of pistons or bearings, have them coated, and shipped directly to you!

      Correct, the cost is for coating a complete set of rod bearings.
  • Nate
    How should the crankshaft size be adjusted for this coating? Thank you!

      The Calico coating thickness is .00025 inch or a quarter of a thousandth of an inch per shell of bearing, or if you have a pair of bearings it would be .00050 inch. This is so thin of a coating, that it will not affect tolerances and nothing needs to be done to the crankshaft when a rod bearing coating is applied.
