Description
The HR Connecting Rods by Hot Rods offer a high-performance, heavy-duty OE replacement option made from certified 8620 AISI steel, ensuring superior strength and durability. The uniquely designed big end features side scalloping vent slots to reduce high-RPM bearing race distortion. The crankpins are made from hot-rolled ASTM 4115 steel and are case hardened to 58-62Rc for enhanced reliability. The rod assembly is sold complete, including the connecting rod, crankpin, crankpin bearing, top-end bearing, and thrust washers. These components are compatible with both Hot Rods and OE crankshafts. The kit also includes high-quality, silver-coated crankpin bearings for improved sliding at reduced temperatures, and SAE-recommended phosphor bronze thrust washers that are silver coated. The forged rod boasts copper-coated surfaces to protect the rod beam from brittleness during the case-hardening process. This ensures that the connecting rods are both high-tech and affordable, making them an excellent choice for those seeking premium replacement options.
