ARP BMW Connecting Rod Bolt Kits
ARP is the world leader in fastener technology. Makers of the finest fasteners in the market, especially for BMW engines, ARP is the choice when you want the highest reliability possible. ARP Con Rod Bolt Sets give you a clear advantage over the OEM Con Rod Bolts: strength! Even cosmetically, the difference in construction and quality is apparent... If you look at many of the OEM bolts, you will see a taper on the threads which actually takes away bolt grip. ARP Pro Series connecting rod bolts are different: Precision CNC-machined to exacting specifications and designed for optimum reliability, their designed for full engagement, quality controlled in each batch, and heat-treated with threads which are rolled to provide up to ten times more fatigue strength than standard OEM BMW fasteners.
Due to the fact that the OE Connecting Rod Bolt is typically one of the first failure points in the bottom end of the BMW engine (Turbo, SC, or Naturally Aspirated), we can't recommend these bolts enough! If your rebuilding you're engine, and have any performance aspirations but cannot afford upgraded aftermarket rods; invest in much stronger ARP con rod bolts.
If you are looking for high performance from you BMW engine, then ARP con rod bolts are the best way to add peace of mind for your bottom end. In fact, nearly all high quality after market rods include ARP bolts for these reasons.
WPC - Surface Treated Rod Bearings
These OEM BMW rod bearings feature the WPC surface treatment. Specifically for BMW S54, S65, and S85 motors, these treated rod bearings are superior replacements, ideal for both naturally aspirated and forced induction builds.
WPC is a proven process that has been utilized for many years in the racing and automotive industry. WPC is not a coating, it is a treatment that enhances the surface to reduce friction and strengthen engine parts. WPC achieves this process by firing ultra fine particles towards the surface of a product at very high speeds. The resulting thermal discharge permanently changes the surface, strengthening structure and creating a harder more durable final product.
The WPC process is unrivalled in treating engine parts and other surfaces that have contact points of friction. WPC is superior because it is not a coating; it is a permanent surface treatment that reduces friction while strengthening the part. It's unique micro-dimple formation pattern greatly reduces friction and is unmatched by conventional methods of surface treatment.
The fine grooves, that are intrinsically engraved into the product surface at the time of machining, are transformed into micro-dimple indentations by the impact of the ultra-fine media during WPC treatment. These dimples then act as oil reservoirs. Thus, oil that would normally drain away, through the grooves in an untreated product, when pressure is applied, is instead retained in the dimples of a WPC treated product. This helps to keep the surface lubricated.
As with all bearings, check your tolerances and size before installation. Due to the specialized tools needed, professional installation is recommended.
There are no returns available on any engine bearings.
