Description

The Hot Rods Connecting Rod Kit provides superior strength and durability, making it an ideal choice for enthusiasts and professionals alike. Manufactured from certified 8620 AISI steel, these connecting rods offer exceptional resistance to stress and fatigue. The crankpins are crafted from hot-rolled ASTM 4115 steel and case hardened to a level of 58-62Rc, ensuring optimal wear resistance. Featuring the latest caged needle roller bearing designs, this kit promotes high RPM longevity. The uniquely designed big end incorporates strategically located side scalloping and vent slots to minimize bearing race distortion at high RPM. Double-drilled small ends provide extra lubrication and cooling to the wrist pin bearing, especially crucial when the piston crown is close to the wrist pin bearing. Shot-peened to eliminate surface stress risers and double-honed for an ultra-round bearing surface, this kit delivers unmatched reliability. Compatible with both Hot Rods and OE crankshafts, the Hot Rods Connecting Rod Kit offers a seamless upgrade for your 450cc 4-stroke engine. Proudly made in the USA, this kit ensures top-tier quality and performance.
