What is the purpose of connecting rod bearings?

Connecting rod bearings are a critical engine component that sits between the crankshaft and the connecting rod. Their main job is to allow the connecting rod to spin smoothly around the crankshaft while handling the significant forces generated during combustion and power delivery.

What material are these bearings made from?

These bearings feature King Engine Bearings' specialized overlay material. This material is chosen for its balance of wear resistance and conformability, allowing it to adapt to crankshaft surfaces while protecting against friction.

What is important during installation?

Proper oil clearance is essential for the correct function and longevity of connecting rod bearings. Always consult your vehicle's service manual for the precise specifications to ensure these bearings are installed correctly.

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the bottom end of your Ford Ecoboost 1.5L engine, especially those with UNCA, UNCB, or M9MA designations, a solid set of connecting rod bearings is crucial. These bearings sit between the crankshaft and the connecting rod, allowing the rod to spin smoothly while handling significant loads. Getting this critical interface right is key to engine longevity and performance.

King Engine Bearings is a well-known name in engine components, and this set is built to handle the demands of the Ecoboost platform. They use a specialized overlay material that's designed to work well with various crankshaft finishes, offering a good balance of wear resistance and conformability. This means they can adapt to minor imperfections while still providing a strong, protective layer against friction.

When installing these, remember that proper oil clearance is essential. Always refer to your vehicle's service manual for the correct specifications to ensure these bearings perform as intended and protect your engine.
