What is the purpose of the +.5mm sizing on these bearings?

The +.5mm sizing indicates that these bearings are designed to fit a crankshaft that has been machined undersize by 0.5mm. This is a common practice during engine rebuilding to ensure proper clearance when the original journals are worn or have been resurfaced.
