What does the 'STDX' sizing mean for these bearings?

The 'STDX' designation indicates that these bearings are manufactured to a specific undersize. This is important if the crankshaft journals have been machined undersize during a previous rebuild to correct wear or damage. Using the correct undersize bearing ensures proper oil clearance.

Are these bearings environmentally safe?

Yes, these bearings are made with a lead-free composite material, making them environmentally safe. This is part of King Engine Bearings' commitment to offering high-performance components that also meet environmental standards.

What is the primary benefit of using bi-metal aluminum material?

The bi-metal aluminum construction offers a good balance of strength and thermal conductivity. This material is chosen for its ability to handle the high loads and temperatures encountered in performance engine applications, contributing to improved bearing life.
