{"product_id":"100-11-536-0019","title":"WPC-Treated Rod Bearing Set - M50, M52, M52TU, M54, M56, S50, S52","description":"Our treated rod bearings are not coated; coatings tend to add too much material and interfere with proper tolerances, causing more problems than they solve. The bearings we use have been treated with a process that not only makes the grain structure in the surface of the bearing smoother, but also aids in oil retention, providing more lubricity in this critical area of your M50, S50, S52 engine. This set is also an upgrade for the M20 12 valve engine as well as M42 and M44 4 cylinder engines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWPC treatment Benefits -\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemoves high spots and imperfections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves fatigue resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncrease the surface's oil retention abilities for more lubrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafer than new coatings and will not decrease clearances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreserves the new bearing's metallurgy, helping to diagnose bearing wear in used oil analysis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eBimmerWorld Tip \/ Note: To further protect your engine and prevent failures, we highly recommend a premium-quality oil, such as Red Line with a higher zinc content. Correct oil operating temperature is 220°F+. Always let your car warm up properly before subjecting the engine to higher throttle angles and RPMs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBearings are sold by size.
