What material are these COMP Cams pushrods made from?

These COMP Cams Hi-Tech pushrods are constructed from a single piece of seamless chromemoly steel tubing. They are then heat-treated for added strength and durability.

Why is the wall thickness important for pushrods?

A thicker wall, like the .080" on these pushrods, provides increased strength and rigidity. This helps prevent bending or failure, especially in high-RPM or high-performance engine applications.

Are these pushrods suitable for use with guide plates?

Yes, these pushrods are heat-treated specifically to ensure compatibility with guide plates. The precision-formed ends and consistent diameter help them work effectively with guide plates for proper valve train alignment.

Product Details

When you're rebuilding the top end of your engine, especially for performance applications, the pushrods are a critical link in the valve train. They transfer the motion from the lifters to the rocker arms, and they need to be strong enough to handle the forces involved, especially at higher RPMs. COMP Cams' Hi-Tech pushrods are built to meet those demands, ensuring reliable operation for your engine's valvetrain.

These pushrods are made from a single piece of seamless chromemoly steel tubing with a substantial .080" wall thickness. This one-piece design, combined with heat-treating, gives them excellent strength and durability, making them suitable for engines that see a lot of action. The ends are precisely formed to add thickness where it's needed most, while maintaining consistent wall thickness throughout. They are also OD ground for uniformity and finished with a black oxide coating. Each pushrod has its length and part number laser-etched on it, which makes identification much easier during installation.

This set includes pushrods that are 7.650 inches long and 5/16 inches in diameter. They are designed to work well with guide plates, ensuring proper alignment and function within the valve train. If you're building an engine that needs dependable valvetrain components, these Hi-Tech pushrods from COMP Cams are a solid option.
