What material are these pushrods made from?

These COMP Cams Hi-Tech pushrods are constructed from seamless chromemoly steel tubing. They are then heat-treated for maximum strength and finished with a black oxide coating.

Are these pushrods suitable for stock engines?

While these pushrods are designed for the demands of high-RPM race engines, their strong construction from seamless chromemoly steel can also be beneficial in performance-oriented street applications. It's always best to match valve train components to your specific engine build.

What does the laser etching on the pushrods indicate?

The laser etching on the outside diameter of the pushrods clearly marks the length and the part number. This makes it much easier to identify the correct pushrods during installation or if you need to reorder.

Product Details

The .080" wall thickness on these COMP Cams Hi-Tech pushrods is a key detail, offering a solid foundation for the demands of high-RPM race engines. Pushrods are critical components in your engine's valve train, and they need to be strong enough to avoid bending or burning up at the ends, especially when you're pushing your engine hard. These particular pushrods are designed to handle the frequency and RPMs that modern performance engines require.

Constructed from a single piece of seamless chromemoly tubing, these pushrods offer excellent strength and durability. The ends are precision formed to add thickness and strength where it matters most, while keeping the wall thickness consistent. They're also heat-treated to ensure they work well with guide plates, and OD ground for uniformity. The black oxide finish not only looks good but also helps with identification, with the length and part number laser etched right onto the tube.

If you're building or rebuilding a performance engine that will see high RPMs, these pushrods are a well-built option to consider for your valve train.
