Product Details

This is a set of connecting rod bearings from King Engine Bearings, specifically sized at +0.50mm for Mercedes-Benz OM642 engines. These bearings are crucial for the proper function of your engine, as they sit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft, reducing friction and wear during operation. King Engine Bearings has been a specialist in this area since 1960, focusing on supplying well-built bearings.

This particular set features a tri-metal copper-based material with a lead-free composite layer. This construction, known as Silvercore, is designed to handle extreme loads, making it a solid option for rebuilding or repairing your engine. The +0.50mm sizing means these bearings are intended for use when the crankshaft journals have been machined down by 0.50mm to address wear or damage.

This set fits a range of vehicles, including Freightliner Sprinter models, and Mercedes-Benz E-Class, GL-Class, ML-Class, and R-Class vehicles. It's important to ensure your crankshaft journals have been properly machined to the +0.50mm undersize before installing these bearings.
