What is the main bearing set?

The main bearings in an internal combustion engine are fashioned to alleviate friction between the crankshaft and the engine block, enabling the crankshaft to rotate at high speeds as driven by the piston rods. The set includes both bearings.

What are three reasons to upgrade?

Better Lubrication

Your stock main bearings may not be able to cope with your car's boosted engine output. Higher horsepower will cause the pistons and piston rods in your engine to push down with increased speed and intensity, causing the crankshaft to rotate at higher speeds. The increased rotation speed of the crankshaft will diminish the lubricating effect of the thin oil film between the main bearings and the crankshaft. As a result, the crankshaft may scuff your stock bearings a bit more, causing increased heat and friction that may bring about the failure of the bearings. Worse still, it may even weld onto the crankshaft and cause immense damage to your engine. These King Engine Bearings' main bearings are made with extended oil grooves and tapered groove run-outs that ensure a more dependable flow of oil, and they have also been made with a good oil clearance for a thicker oil film. Therefore, you can count on them to sustain ideal lubrication even with higher heat and friction levels that come with the increased horsepower.

Superior Seizure Prevention

The bearings that come with the King Engine Bearings main bearing set MB5771XPare far less prone to bearing seizure than the OE bi-metal aluminum-alloy bearings in your 2017 Hyundai Sonata. These bi-metal aluminum bearings work satisfactorily within predetermined horsepower levels. They are likely to flake or peel under higher engine loads. In extreme cases, their aluminum alloys may soften and melt, and as a result, the crankshaft may seize them. However, the bearings of the King Engine Bearings main bearing set MB5771XP benefit from high-quality materials with a low-friction, deformable lead-tin-copper overlay that resists seizure when the crankshaft gets in contact with them, even under high engine loads. Therefore, you will do well to get these King Engine Bearings race series bearings for your car, especially if you plan to enhance its performance markedly.

Guaranteed to Last Longer

The King Engine Bearings main bearing set MB5771XP is also sure to last longer. These performance engine bearings have tougher high-strength steel backings that will hold up to the pressures of high engine loads for longer. They also achieve increased crush heights that help to boost heat dissipation, ensuring more dependable operation for longer.
