What is the main bearing set?

Main bearings are located within the saddles of a piston engine block, and they hold the ends of your car's crankshaft, making it easier for the crankshaft to rotate within an engine block. The King Engine Bearings main bearing set MB5706SI0.5 comprises journal bearings.

What are three reasons to upgrade?

Better Lubrication

Your stock main bearings may not be able to cope with your car's upgraded engine output. In your boosted engine, the firing pressure that pushes the connecting rods down on the crankshaft is higher, and so your crankshaft is sure to rotate much faster. The increased rotation speed of the crankshaft will diminish the lubricating effect of the thin oil film between the main bearings and the crankshaft. The crankshaft may end up rubbing against your bearings more, causing intense friction that may tear apart your bearings. Worse still, it may even weld onto the crankshaft and bring about considerable damage to your engine. These King Engine Bearings' main bearings are designed with extended oil grooves and tapered groove run-outs that ensure a steadier 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 excellent lubrication even with increased heat and friction levels that come with the increased horsepower.

Superior Seizure Prevention

The stock bi-metal aluminum bearings of your 2017 Hyundai Sonata are excellent. But, they cannot match the King Engine Bearings main bearing set MB5706SI0.5 in terms of seizure resistance. These bi-metal aluminum bearings function optimally 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. These King Engine Bearings main bearings have a supplementary lead-tin-copper overlay that delivers superior wear and seizure resistance 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 significantly.

Guaranteed to Last Longer

The King Engine Bearings main bearing set MB5706SI0.5 will last longer than your stock main engine bearings. These more rigid bearings are designed mainly for high-performance driving and high horsepower applications. They feature three layers of friction-resistant nickel and lead-tin-copper alloys, all bonded to SAE1010 high strength steel plates that will maintain crush high engine loads. In addition, these performance engine bearings deliver increased force, which results in superior heat management.
