Rod Bolt Stretch at Consuela Pelkey blog

Rod Bolt Stretch. When dealing with somewhat unknown stuff, i will experiment with one bolt or two to find what torque it takes to get near the desired. Most engine rod failures aren’t from faulty parts, they’re from improper installation. When you’re installing the rods you need to check the rod bolt stretch by performing a series of torqueing and loosening and recording the readings. When building performance engines the rod bolt stretch gauge is just 1 of the specialist tools you'll need to learn how to use correctly. Set your torque wrench to just below the recommended torque setting. This illustrates why using a stretch gauge is far more accurate, creating an optimal clamp load. It accurately measures rod bolt stretch, plus its very easy to use. The procedure is actually quite simple. (image/wayne scraba) the arp tool is designed to that the dial indicator. The only way to ensure the rod bolt has achieved this proper clamp load is to measure it with a rod bolt stretch gauge. Once the connecting rod and cap are installed on the crank, start a nut on the rod bolt,. We then zeroed our stretch gauge and loosened the rod bolt.
