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

The +0.50mm designation indicates that these bearings are intended for use when the connecting rod journals on the crankshaft have been machined down by 0.50mm. This is a common practice during engine rebuilding to restore proper bearing surface and oil clearance.

What is the construction of these bearings?

These bearings are constructed using a bimetal design, which features an aluminum base. This material choice is selected for its ability to withstand the high loads and temperatures found in the engine's connecting rod assembly.

Are these bearings sold as a set?

Yes, this is a set of connecting rod bearings. You will receive the necessary bearings to replace all connecting rod bearings in your engine.
