What does the +0.50mm sizing mean for these bearings?

The +0.50mm designation indicates that these bearings are slightly larger than standard size. They are intended for use when the connecting rod journals on the crankshaft have been machined down by 0.020 inches (0.50mm) during an engine rebuild.

What is the PMaxBlack material?

PMaxBlack is a proprietary material developed by King Engine Bearings. It's designed to offer a higher load capacity compared to traditional bearing materials, which is beneficial for engines under stress.

Are these bearings sold individually or as a set?

This product is a connecting rod bearing set, meaning it includes all the necessary bearings for the connecting rods on your engine. You will receive multiple bearings, typically enough for all connecting rods on a 4-cylinder engine.
