What does the 0.50 size indicate for these bearings?

The 0.50 size indicates that these connecting rod bearings are 0.050 inches undersize. This means they are designed to be used with a crankshaft that has been machined down by 0.050 inches, typically to correct for wear or to achieve specific engine clearances.

Are these bearings sold individually or as a set?

This is a set of four connecting rod bearings, which is the standard quantity needed for a four-cylinder engine like the BMW B48A20B.

What is the primary function of connecting rod bearings?

Connecting rod bearings sit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft. Their main job is to reduce friction and wear by providing a smooth, low-friction surface for the rotating crankshaft journal, while also maintaining proper oil clearance.
