What material is this pushrod made from?

This COMP Cams Hi-Tech pushrod is constructed from a single piece of seamless chromemoly steel tubing. It features a .080-inch wall thickness for added strength.

Why is the length specified as +.1"?

The '+.1' in the product name indicates that this pushrod is 0.1 inches longer than a standard or stock pushrod for certain applications. This can be important for valve train geometry adjustments.

What is the black oxide finish for?

The black oxide finish serves multiple purposes. It helps protect the chromemoly steel from corrosion and also aids in identifying the part, as the length and part number are laser-etched onto it.

Product Details

When you're building or rebuilding an engine, especially one that's going to see some serious action, every part in the valve train matters. You get one Hi-Tech pushrod in this package, measuring 8.380 inches long with a 3/8-inch diameter and a .080-inch wall thickness. This pushrod is designed to handle the demands of high-rpm engines, ensuring it won't bend or fail under stress.

COMP Cams constructs these pushrods from a single piece of seamless chromemoly steel tubing. The ends are precision formed for added thickness and strength where it counts, and the whole piece is heat-treated to make sure it's compatible with guide plates. They're also OD ground for consistent dimensions and finished with a black oxide coating. For easy identification, the length and part number are laser-etched right onto the pushrod itself.

This pushrod fits a wide range of vehicles, including many Chevrolet C/K series trucks from the late 80s and 90s, as well as Chrysler 300s and Dodge Ram trucks from the mid-2000s. It's a solid option for anyone looking for a well-built component for their engine build.
