Developed mainly for drag race applications, the HP series requires a material that is harder than the Babbitt top layer.
These applications demand a structure that can withstand high loads for short durations while still offering higher embedability and compatibility.
In response, KING developed the HP Series featuring the Alecular™ metal structure.
The HP series is also suitable for many performance applications with nodular cast iron crankshafts, including street, strip, and some levels of circle track racing.
The HP series is particularly suitable for the following cases: When a tri-metal bearing’s Babbitt overlay extrudes over the sides, migrates to one end, or is physically removed by the crankshaft; when the intermediate layer of a tri-metal bearing is exposed, damaging the crank journal and requiring expensive grinding or replacement; when contaminants enter the oil stream, scratching and damaging the crankshaft journal.
