What does the 0.25 size mean for these bearings?

The 0.25 size indicates that these bearings are 0.25mm undersize compared to standard. This is used when the crankshaft journals have been machined down during an engine rebuild to ensure a proper fit and oil clearance.

What is the CP designation on these bearings?

The 'CP' in the part number refers to King's special overlay applied to the bearing surface. This overlay is designed to improve wear resistance and reduce friction, contributing to a longer bearing life and smoother engine operation.

Are these bearings suitable for a performance engine build?

Yes, King Engine Bearings are known for their robust tri-metal construction, which offers improved strength and durability. This makes them a solid option for both standard engine rebuilds and performance applications where increased stress is expected.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your Mercedes Benz with an M 272.911 or M 272.920 engine, getting the connecting rod bearings right is crucial for smooth operation and longevity. These King Engine Bearings are specifically made to fit those engines and are sized 0.25mm undersize, which is important if your crankshaft journals have been machined down during a rebuild.

King uses a tri-metal material for these bearings, which is known for its strength and ability to handle the pressures found in performance and rebuilt engines. The CP designation means they have a special overlay that helps with wear resistance and reduces friction, keeping things running cooler and smoother. This set is designed to be a direct replacement for your stock bearings, assuming your crankshaft has been prepared for the 0.25mm undersize.
