What does the '0.026' in the part number signify?

The '.026' indicates that these main bearings are 0.026 inches undersize. This is important if your engine's crankshaft has been machined to a smaller diameter to clean up the bearing journals.

What is the King XP material?

King's XP material is a high-performance overlay applied to the bearing surface. It's designed to withstand the stresses and heat found in performance engines, helping to maintain oil clearance and reduce wear.

Are these bearings a direct replacement for stock S62 main bearings?

These bearings are designed for the BMW S62 engine. However, they are 0.026 inch undersize, meaning they are intended for use when the crankshaft journals have been machined to that specific size, not as a direct replacement for stock, standard-size journals.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the bottom end of your BMW S62 engine, getting the main bearings right is crucial for proper crankshaft support and oil flow. This set from King Engine Bearings is specifically made for the S62, offering a precise fit for a healthy rebuild. They come in a 0.026 inch undersize, which is important if your crankshaft journals have been machined to clean them up.

King uses their XP material, which is a high-performance overlay that's designed to handle the demands of performance engines. This overlay is bonded to a steel-backed bearing, giving you a strong and durable component. The material is chosen for its ability to maintain its structure under load and heat, helping to ensure consistent oil clearance and reduce wear over time. Getting the right bearing size is key, and these 0.026 inch undersize bearings are ready if your crankshaft needs that specific journal size.
