pMaxKote- Coated Bearings (XPC)
This unique polymer coating is applied over King’s pMaxBlack overlay at the King factory during the bearing manufacturing process. King’s pMaxKote contains ceramic nano-composite particles that function as a fourth layer to enhance wear resistance. pMaxKote does not change the bearing’s original precision wall thickness and adds no additional thickness.

Doweled Bearings (XPD)
Race dowel, means the bearing has a dowel hole in it for locating on a dowel pin. Used in Racing Applications.
