King XPC pMaxKote Bearings for Audi 4.2L Chain Variant Engines 32v & 40v

Regular price $459.95

The top of the line aftermarket option for connecting rod bearings. This is a tangless bearing and very simple to install. Bearing tangs do not serve any purpose other than helping install alignment. These connecting rod bearings will fit all of the following models:

  • B7 RS4 4.2L
  • R8 V8 4.2L
  • B8 S5 4.2L
  • B6/7 S4 4.2L

King’s new pMaxKote™ is a nano-composite polymer coating. It is applied over the pMaxBlack™ overlay at the King factory as part of the bearing manufacturing process. It enhances wear resistance without changing the bearing’s original precision wall thickness dimension.

King’s pMaxKote™ is a new approach to coated bearings. It has proven to protect bearings during metal-to-metal contact, as well as from the erosive effects of cavitation. It contains ceramic nano-composite particles that function as a fourth layer that provides superior build protection.

pMaxKote™ enhances the following benefits of King XP race bearings:

  • Superior seizure resistance
  • Superior cavitation resistance
  • Superior wear resistance
  • Superior protection against oil starvation
