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

The +0.50mm sizing indicates that these bearings are 0.50mm larger than standard. This is typically used when the crankshaft journals have been machined undersize during an engine rebuild to account for wear or for performance modifications.

What is trimetal construction?

Trimetal bearings consist of three layers: a steel backing for strength, a copper-lead alloy for load-carrying capacity, and a thin overlay of babbitt (a soft metal alloy) for excellent conformability and embeddability.

Are these bearings sold individually or as a set?

This product is a set of conrod bearings, providing the necessary components for your engine's connecting rod application.
