What does the '+0.5' sizing mean for these rod bearings?

The '+0.5' indicates that these bearings are 0.5mm (approximately 0.020 inches) larger than standard size. They are intended for use when the crankshaft journals have been machined undersize during an engine rebuild to correct wear or damage.

What is Manganx and why is it used?

Manganx is a strengthened aluminum composite used by King Engine Bearings. It's designed to improve the bearing's performance and durability, while also being an environmentally safe, lead-free material.

Are these bearings suitable for a stock engine rebuild?

These are performance rod bearings, often chosen for engine rebuilds where improved durability and load handling are desired. They are specifically sized at +0.5 for use with machined crankshafts.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your Acura or Honda, these performance rod bearings from King Engine Bearings are a solid option. They're specifically made for a range of popular Acura and Honda engines, including those found in models like the Acura TL, Honda Accord, and Honda Odyssey. These bearings are a critical component for ensuring your engine runs smoothly and lasts. They sit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft, allowing the rod to rotate freely while handling significant loads.

King Engine Bearings specializes in making just this type of part, and they've been doing it since 1960. This set is built with a bi-metal aluminum material that's strengthened with Manganx, a lead-free composite that's environmentally safe. The +0.5 sizing means these are intended for use when the crankshaft journals have been machined down by 0.020 inches (0.5mm) during an engine rebuild. This helps to restore proper clearances and ensure optimal oil flow.
