ARP Head Stud&Rod Bolt Kit &Assembly Lubricant For 03-07 Powerstroke 6.0L Diesel

1-) Part Number:  ARP - 250-4202 

 

The ARP 250-4202 Head Studs are a must-have upgrade for your 03-07 Ford 6.0L Powerstroke. These extra heavy duty studs are rated at 220,000 psi tensile strength and provide the clamping force required to keep your 6.0L Powerstroke’s cylinder heads from lifting due to higher combustion pressures.

 

Manufactured in ARP’s Santa Paula, CA plant from proprietary ARP 2000 material, with threads rolled after heat-treating to provide optimum fatigue strength. They are centerless ground to assure perfect concentricity. Also included in each kit are heat-treated, chrome-moly steel 12-point nuts and parallel-ground washers, with a black oxide finish for extra durability. ARP also offers the Inner Row Head Bolts as an add-on to compliment this head stud kit

 

2-) Part Number:  ARP - 250-6301

 

ARP Pro series connecting rod bolts are precision CNC-machined to exacting specifications and designed for optimum reliability. They are heat-treated and threads are rolled to provide up to ten times more fatigue strength. This makes them far superior to standard OEM fasteners in terms of durability, and fully capable of handling the extra stress of high-combustion engines.

Because of frictional inconsistencies with oil, moly, and other lubricants it takes multiple cycles of torquing the bolt, loosening it, and tightening it again to obtain the required preload or stretch.Typically, when a fastener is first tightened, friction is at its highest point and the preload value or stretch is low. As the fastener is cycled numerous times the friction decreases and the preload increases. This phenomenon is called "preload scatter." With this ARP Ultra Torque assembly lubricant, a fastener need only be torqued once to get within 5 percent of ideal preload, and it remains consistent through all subsequent cycles (from race-prep machining through final assembly). Moreover, given the inconsistencies of ordinary lubes, it is quite possible for adjacent head bolts or studs to have vastly different preloads. This scatter causes bore distortion, hampers piston ring seal, and leads to poor head gasket sealing.
