What is the main benefit of the PMaxBlack overlay?

The PMaxBlack overlay on these bearings is engineered for superior load capacity. This means they can handle higher stress and pressure, making them a good choice for performance applications or engines that are worked hard.

Why is the +0.5mm sizing important?

The +0.5mm sizing indicates that these bearings are slightly larger than standard. This is used when a crankshaft journal has been machined down (ground) by 0.5mm to ensure a proper fit and correct oil clearance during an engine rebuild.

Do these bearings come with installation hardware?

This product is for the rod bearing set only. Installation hardware, such as main bearing bolts or rod bolts, is typically sold separately and should be sourced according to your engine's service manual.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your Subaru EJ20, EJ22, or EJ25, these King Engine Bearings rod bearings are a solid option. They're designed to fit a range of Subaru and Saab models, including the Forester, Impreza, and Baja, and are a direct replacement for your stock bearings. These are a tri-metal, copper-based bearing set, meaning they offer improved strength and load-carrying capabilities compared to standard bearings.

What sets these bearings apart is their PMaxBlack overlay. This advanced material is built to handle higher loads, which is crucial for performance engines or those that see hard use. They also feature Radialock, a design that helps maintain optimal crush height during installation, ensuring the bearing stays securely in place. This set is sized at +0.5mm, so make sure to check your crankshaft journal size to confirm it's the correct fit for your rebuild.
