King XP-Series Rod Bearings
King XP-Series rod bearings feature advanced metallurgical and geometric technologies that meet extreme performance loads. They were developed for all performance applications that use forged steel aftermarket crankshafts and produce high loads for extended periods. King focuses on one product—bearings—and nothing else. Their innovative race-only Xtreme Performance Max Black Tri-Metal rod bearings have a 24 percent stronger overlay and 17 percent more fatigue strength by using a micro process called SecureBond. Built with enhanced tri-metal, King XP-Series rod bearings layer copper-lead construction with a nickel plate barrier and a lead/tin/copper Babbitt overlay over a steel backing in an adhesion process that provides superior stability and durability. King's advanced control measures hit a bull's-eye, maintaining wall thickness tolerances far tighter than their competitors—at an amazing +/- .0001 in.! XP-Series rod bearings are narrowed on the crank cheek side with increased crush height for improved bearing-to-bore contact, heat transfer, and reduced spin potential in high-rpm applications.

King HP-Series Rod Bearings
King HP-Series rod bearings were developed mainly for drag race applications needing a material harder than the Babbitt top layer. These applications demanded a structure that could withstand high loads for short durations and still offer higher embeddability and compatibility. In response, King developed the HP-Series, featuring the Alecular metal structure. The HP-Series is also suited for many performance applications with nodular cast iron crankshafts, such as street, strip, and some levels of Circle Track racing. Order the set recommended for your vehicle. HP-Series bearings are particularly suitable for the following cases: * When a tri-metal bearing's Babbitt overlay extrudes over the sides, migrates to one end, or is physically removed by the crankshaft * When the intermediate layer of a tri-metal bearing is exposed, damaging the crank journal and requiring expensive grinding or replacement * When contaminants enter the oil stream, scratching and damaging the crankshaft journals

King MC-Series Rod Bearings
King introduces the new solution for the aftermarket demand of superior service life and performance in modern engines. The King MC-Series rod bearings were engineered in the wake of ongoing internal combustion engine development—resulting in ever-decreasing minimum oil film thickness values; higher cylinder pressures, temperatures and loads; smaller load carrying bearing surfaces; and lighter components. Additionally, "start/stop" technology produces more frequent mixed lubrication and metal-to-metal contact conditions. The new King MC-Series rod bearings feature a nano-composite polymer coating, known as K-340. It's designed for applying over relatively hard substrates: bronze, aluminum alloys, sputter overlay, and King silver overlay. These bi-metal silicone aluminum sets are available in different sizes for fitment on countless car and truck applications.
