{"product_id":"r-aud-003-i-p","title":"VW \/ Audi 1.8L 20v Turbo ZRP Connecting Rods","description":"Audi \/ VW 1.8L Turbo 20v (225PS) I-Beam Connecting rods are manufactured from 4340 high tensile steel, they are designed for high performance, extreme durability and extra rigidity. These rods have a \u003cu\u003eTapered Pin End\u003c\/u\u003e, so they are compatible with OEM pistons. The bushings made from \u003cu\u003eAMPCO 18\u003c\/u\u003e material for excellent resistance to wear and fatigue and have radial groove for oil reservoir. They are shot peened to relieve stress from the material and multi-stage heat treated to increase rigidity. The tight tolerances in the production process, ensure a perfect fitment while optimizing the oil clearances. Bend and twist is tightly controlled.Each rod includes ARP 2000 cap fasteners that are rated at 220,000psi, optional ARP L19 material 260.00psi available as an upgrade and the whole kit is supplied with ARP moly and full fitting instructions.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eAdditional machining processes\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003e“Tapered” Pin End - Suitable for O.E.M. pistons\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eDowel sleeves for perfect fit and accurate re-assembling\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eLipped Cap Relief for improved big-end integrity at extreme application\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eGrooves in Thrust Face for weight reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eTechnical Features of ZRP Connecting Rods\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eI-Beam Shape for extra rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eTwo-Piece forging for great strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eShot Peening for improved fatigue life\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eMagnaflux Inspection guarantees that the consistency of the forged material meets our high-quality standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eDouble ribbed caps for added support\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eMulti Stage Heat Treatment for maximum strength, dimensional stability, and fatigue life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eCNC machining for superior tolerances, precise as much as 0.0002\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eCenter to center is maintained under .001\" tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eFinite Element Analysis (FEA) Computer generated stress analysis of con rods\u003c\/li\u003e\n \t\u003cli\u003eOptimal balancing for weight matched sets of ± 1gram\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ZRP","offers":[{"title":"R-AUD-003-I","offer_id":56318410719576,"sku":"R-AUD-003-I","price":521.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0146\/4575\/6004\/files\/r-aud-003-i-1_cf3400d7-a823-451e-b0f7-f517a4920595.jpg?v=1764686814","url":"https:\/\/www.marseal-motors.com\/en-de\/products\/r-aud-003-i-p","provider":"Marseal Motors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
