What does the '+1.0' size designation mean for these bearings?

The '+1.0' indicates that these bearings are designed for crankshaft journals that have been machined down by 0.040 inches (1.0 mm) from their original size. This is a common practice during engine rebuilding when the crankshaft has wear or damage that requires machining.

What is the construction of these King Engine Bearings?

These bearings feature a bimetal construction, which means they have an aluminum alloy base. This design helps with heat dissipation and provides a durable surface for the crankshaft to rotate against.

Are these bearings sold individually or as a set?

This product is a set of connecting rod bearings. Typically, a set includes enough bearings to replace all the connecting rod bearings in your engine.

About this part

Product Details

What you get here is a set of connecting rod bearings from King Engine Bearings, specifically sized at +1.0. These bearings are built with a bimetal construction, meaning they have an aluminum base, which helps with heat transfer and durability. They are designed to fit a range of vehicles, including models like the Mazda 323, Ford Escort, and Mazda Protege, among others.

These bearings are crucial for the proper functioning of your engine's rotating assembly. They sit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft, reducing friction and wear as the crankshaft spins. King Engine Bearings is a well-known name in the engine building world, and these bearings are a solid option for anyone rebuilding or repairing an engine where the crankshaft journals have been machined to a +1.0 size. It's important to ensure your crankshaft is properly prepped and measured to the correct +1.0 undersize before installing these bearings.
