Rod Bearing Set - VW / AAZ / 1Z / AHU / ALH | 028105701J-GLY

Glyco rod bearings are a type of engine bearing that is designed to provide support and reduce friction between the crankshaft and connecting rods in an internal combustion engine. They are typically made from a combination of aluminum, copper, and lead, and are coated with a layer of a material called "Babbitt" which is a soft, metal alloy.

The purpose of a rod bearing is to allow the crankshaft to rotate smoothly while supporting the weight and force of the connecting rods, which move up and down as the engine cycles. The Babbitt coating on the Glyco rod bearings acts as a soft, sacrificial layer that wears over time, reducing friction and preventing metal-to-metal contact between the crankshaft and connecting rod.

Glyco is a brand of engine bearings produced by Federal-Mogul, a global manufacturer of automotive parts. Glyco rod bearings are known for their durability, high performance, and reliability, and are commonly used in racing and high-performance engines as well as in everyday passenger vehicles.
