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

The +0.50mm sizing indicates that these bearings are intended for use when the crankshaft journals have been machined down by 0.50mm during an engine rebuild. This allows for a proper fit and oil clearance on journals that have been resurfaced.

Are these bearings suitable for high-performance or racing engines?

These bearings are described as ideal for medium-load engines. For high-performance or racing applications, it's always best to consult the manufacturer's specific recommendations for your build.

What is the primary material used in these bearings?

These connecting rod bearings utilize a bi-metal aluminum material. They are also constructed with a lead-free composite, making them an environmentally safe option for medium-load engines.
