Choosing the correct combination for your rotating assembly is critical when dealing with high HP. Should I choose an I-Beam over a H-Beam connecting rod? What kind of rod do I need if I have a turbo engine? Bildon Motorsport can help you select the right rod for your application. We also work with the factories to design rods specifically for your racing application.
revlite

logoOur Bildon Rev-Lite Connecting Rods are designed to remove unnecessary weight from the rod. The I-beam design eliminates thin cross sections over the total length of the beam. This feature greatly improves resistance to crack-induced metal fatigue. These rods were designed by us for use in high RPM normally aspirated applications that do not see the compressive loads of turbocharged engines.

We also offer our Bildon HD Connecting Rods for engines which will see high mileage or turbocharged applications. The non-tapered profile of our H-beam helps to spread potentially harmful stress over a larger area, dispersing these destructive loads. This design also places needed material in critically stressed areas.

Keeping it German? Then Wössner is for you.
Wössner's connecting rods are computer-designed and CNC-profiled to be stronger, and more durable than comparable 'H-beam' rods. Manufactured from from forged 42 CrMo4 steel and using ARP bolts, their quality is second to none. They feature ARP 220,000 psi rod bolts to ensure proper clamping load, and on the small end, burnished bronze bushings are honed to exact pin clearance.

The rods are sequentially-numbered as just one part part of the strict German quality control process inherent in the manufacture of Wössner components.
