Traditional rod and main bearing construction is based upon a three layer configuration composed of a steel backing, a copper-lead layer and a very thin overlay of babbitt material only .0005'' - .0008'' thick. King’s bearing uses just two layers, a high strength steel backing plus a bonded layer of ''Alecular'' bearing material .012'' - .015'' thick. Alecular material is used exclusively by King. It is an alloy of aluminum, tin, copper and several other elements. Because it is an alloy, it maintains its properties throughout its entire depth, delivering consistent and reliable performance.
