COMP Cams Pushrod 9.050in Straight 7/16

These COMP Cams pushrods are made from one-piece, heat-treated chromemoly tubing, which is notably stronger than common 1000 Series steels. The .165-inch wall thickness, consistent even in the tapered ends, offers a significant stiffness advantage over standard .080-inch or .125-inch wall designs. This improved rigidity is crucial for handling the extreme valve train setups found in high-performance engines, especially those experiencing impact loads up to 7500 lbs, a design principle honed in NASCAR and NHRA racing.

The 7/16-inch diameter provides higher natural frequency, which is beneficial in applications with ample intake port and lifter clearance, helping to maintain valve train stability at high RPMs. Each end features a 5/16-inch ball with a radius, designed to give additional clearance for the rocker adjuster at high lift. This radius also allows the pushrods to be installed in either orientation, simplifying the assembly process. These pushrods are made in the USA and are a solid option for builders looking for a more robust valve train component.
