Overview

King GPC-Series Main Bearings

King GPC-series main bearings are ultra-high performance, silver-based tri-metal engine bearings featuring a protective polymer nano-composite coating, engineered to withstand extreme loads up to 17,000 psi in heavy-duty diesel and elite race applications.

Additional details:

* Silver-Based Tri-Metal: Uses a robust silver-plating matrix that far exceeds traditional copper or aluminum load capacities
* Polymer Protective Coating: Includes a 10-micron factory coating that shields the journal during momentary oil starvation or metal-to-metal contact
* High Load Threshold: Rated for extreme dynamic pressures up to 17,000 psi, outperforming standard race alternatives that peak near 11,000 psi
* Common applications:
-- High Performance Diesel: Frequently utilized in heavy-duty platforms like the GM Duramax, Ford Powerstroke, and Dodge Cummins
-- Forced Induction Imports/Domestics: Chosen for high-boost, high-output competition engines (such as high performance BMW inline-6 architectures) where traditional tri-metal or bimetal options risk fatigue failure
