Manufactured from hot-rolled ASTM 4115 steel and case-hardened to 58–62 Rc, it offers superior toughness. The advanced design includes side scalloping and vent slots to minimize bearing race distortion at high RPM. Double-forged rods enhance grain flow and maintain consistent dimensions, while shot-peening and double-honing add strength. Small ends are double-drilled for improved lubrication, and silver-coated thrust washers and crank pin bearings provide enhanced lubricity. The complete kit includes the rod, crank pin, crank pin bearing, top-end bearing, and thrust washers. Dimensions in mm: A (Center-to-Center Length) 125, B (Big End Bore Diameter) 24, C (Big End Width) 18, D (Small End Bore Diameter) 20, E (Small End Width) 22, F (Pin Length) 58.5.
