R&R Pro
Billet Aluminum
Connecting Rods
R&R Pro-series Connecting Rods
are
CNC machined out of their proprietary aluminum alloys developed exclusively for
R&R. The Pro-series alloy has up to 24% increased tensile and yield strength
over competitors rod alloys. All alloys are cold extruded under 2,000+ tons
of pressure to ensure consistent grain flow and density. This yields the
strongest and lightest rod possible with an exceptional fatigue life and reduced
elongation. As with all our connecting rods, material has been ultrasonically
tested, bores are precision honed to standards, mating surfaces are standard or
circle-loc™ serrated for super-strength and perfect cap to rod alignment, and
all corners are blended to eliminate stress risers. All connecting rods come
standard with ARP rod bolts.
R&R
Aluminum Connecting rods are available for most any import or domestic
applications by providing a fully custom rod at little or no cost above that of
an “off-the-shelf” product. Custom rods are our specialty. Our in-house team is capable of designing and
manufacturing a single set of rods or a few hundred sets, reasonable priced,
with the shortest turn around time possible, ensuring quick delivery so you
spend more time on the track or strip than sitting in the stands! Dealer and
volume pricing is available to those who qualify.

You may ask, why are R&R's rods made out of billets
and not forgings.
It is often believed
nothing is better than a forged connecting rod. Even though our rods
are manufactured out of what looks like a square stock, it should not be
confused for a casting or a plate.
Unlike a forging in which the aluminum is
literally pounded into the shape of a rod, our material is is cold worked,
forced through a die at extreme
pressures, to form the billets from which the rods are CNC'ed from. This work hardening builds the strength,
grain structure, elasticity, and general characteristics that
makes our rods superior to common forgings. Our alloy is then further
artificially aged and heat treated, then stress relieved though additional
manufacturing processes.

Where our competition’s rods can't stay in your block, our connecting
rods are built to stand up and survive whatever punishment your can dish
out. We have thousands of customers who count on our rods and so can
you! Our in-house team is
capable of designing and manufacturing a single set of rods or a few
hundred sets, reasonable priced, with the shortest turn around time
possible, ensuring quick delivery so you spend more time running your
R&R rods than you spend waiting for them.
