Description
Brian Crower AR8910 – ARP Custom Age 625+ Connecting Rod Bolt x1, 3/8″ x 1.600″
Ensure ultimate bottom-end reliability with the Brian Crower AR8910, the gold standard in high-performance connecting rod fasteners.
When building a high-horsepower engine, the connecting rod bolts are the most critically stressed fasteners in the entire assembly. The Brian Crower AR8910 is engineered for those who refuse to compromise, featuring ARP’s legendary Custom Age 625+ super-alloy. Whether you are pushing the limits of a 2JZ, a K-Series, or a high-boost turbo build, these bolts provide the clamping force and fatigue resistance necessary to prevent catastrophic engine failure.
Aerospace-Grade Strength
The AR8910 utilizes ARP Custom Age 625+, a newly formulated super-alloy that demonstrates superior tensile strength and toughness compared to standard fasteners. With a typical tensile strength of 260,000 to 280,000 psi, these bolts are designed to handle the extreme inertial loads of high-RPM racing and the massive cylinder pressures of forced induction.
Engineered for Performance Rods
Please note that the AR8910 is a specific 3/8″ x 1.600″ fastener designed to fit Brian Crower (BC) connecting rods. These are not intended for use as an OEM replacement for factory rods. By upgrading to the Custom Age 625+ series, you are moving beyond the (already impressive) ARP2000 standard to the highest tier of fastener technology available in the automotive industry.
Total Resistance to Corrosion & Fatigue
Beyond sheer strength, the Custom Age 625+ material offers complete resistance to atmospheric corrosion and oxidation. This ensures that the fasteners maintain their integrity over time, even in the harsh environment of a high-performance engine. Every bolt is manufactured to exacting tolerances to ensure consistent stretch and clamping load across all cylinders.
