VAC's High-Performance Coated Rod Bearing Sets for BMW N20 and N26 engines are engineered to withstand the demands of high-performance street, track, and motorsport applications. Designed for BMW platforms including the F30 320i/328i, F31 328i Touring, F32/F33/F36 428i, F22 228i, and select F25 X3 models, these bearings provide reliable bottom-end protection for turbocharged four-cylinder engines.
Each bearing features a proprietary low-friction coating that reduces parasitic drag, helping your engine generate more power while improving resistance to bearing "spin" under high load and high-RPM conditions. The coating also delivers enhanced thermal protection, making these bearings ideal for forced induction, track use, and performance builds where engine reliability is critical.
Proven in both street and motorsport applications, VAC N20/N26 rod bearings offer extended service life and superior performance compared to conventional bearings, giving you confidence in every build.
