What is the advantage of the bi-metal aluminum material?

The bi-metal aluminum construction offers good thermal conductivity, which helps to dissipate heat away from the bearing surface. This can contribute to more stable engine temperatures under load.

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

These bearings are described as ideal for low to medium-load engines. For high-performance or racing applications, you may need to consult King Engine Bearings' performance line for bearings designed for more extreme conditions.

About this part

Product Details

Built with a lead-free, environmentally safe composite material, this main bearing set from King Engine Bearings is a solid option for engines that don't see extreme loads. The bi-metal aluminum construction offers good thermal transfer, helping to keep your engine running cooler. This set is specifically sized at +0.50mm, meaning it's intended for use when the crankshaft journals have been machined down by 0.50mm during an engine rebuild.

King Engine Bearings has been specializing in just bearings since 1960, focusing on creating well-built components. This particular set is designed to fit a range of popular Acura and Honda vehicles, including models like the Acura Integra, Honda Accord, and Honda CR-V. When you're rebuilding the bottom end of your engine, using bearings that are sized correctly for any machining work is crucial for proper oil clearance and long-term reliability.
