Fitment Notes

  • STDX size (-0.0005in / -0.01mm under standard bearing thickness) to allow extra oil clearance; confirm your crankshaft journal spec matches STDX before ordering

Features

  • pMaxKote factory-applied nano-composite polymer coating for improved break-in and reduced friction
  • Copper-lead layered construction with nickel plate barrier and lead/tin/copper Babbitt overlay over steel backing
  • 45-degree chamfer on the crank cheek side improves bearing-to-bore contact and heat transfer
  • Increased crush height reduces spin potential in high-RPM applications
  • Wall thickness tolerances held to +/- .0001in for consistent, reliable fitment

Product Description

The King CR4542XPCSTDX is an STDX-size connecting rod bearing set built for the Honda K-Series 2.0L/2.3L/2.4L engine family (except A3), engineered for race applications running forged steel aftermarket crankshafts under high, sustained loads. The XP Tri-Metal construction layers copper-lead material with a nickel plate barrier and Babbitt overlay, finished with King's pMaxKote nano-composite polymer coating for improved break-in and durability.

A 45-degree chamfer on the crank cheek side and increased crush height improve bearing-to-bore contact and heat transfer while reducing spin potential at high RPM. Wall thickness is held to a tight +/- .0001in tolerance, and the STDX sizing provides slightly more oil clearance than standard bearings, so confirm this size matches your crankshaft journal spec before installing.
