What material are the ARP head studs made from?

These head studs are manufactured from ARP's proprietary 8740 chromoly steel. This material is heat-treated to provide high tensile strength and durability for demanding engine conditions.

Are these studs reusable after installation?

ARP head studs are designed for multiple uses, provided they are inspected for any damage or stretching after removal. Always refer to ARP's installation instructions for proper inspection and re-use guidelines.

What is the advantage of rolled threads over cut threads?

Rolled threads are formed by pressing the metal into shape after the stud has been heat-treated. This process strengthens the threads and makes them more resistant to stripping compared to cut threads, which are machined after heat treatment.
