Manufactured from 8740 Chromoly Steel, ARP heat treats all studs in-house to 190,000 PSI tensile strength. Precision J-form threads rolled after heat-treat create a fastener that has threads 2000% stronger than others!

STUDS vs. BOLTS

Studs provide more accurate and consistent torque loading. Using studs ensures easier engine assembly and proper alignment.

The ARP 247-5404 Dodge/Cummins Main Stud Kit is perfect for that application!

Heres why: when you use bolts to secure the main, the fastener is actually being twisted while its being torqued to the proper reading. Accordingly, the bolt is reacting to two different forces simultaneously.

Install a stud in a relaxed mode never crank it in tightly using a jammed nut. Always install the stud hand tight! Then, when applying torque to the nut, the stud will stretch only on the vertical axis.
