What is the purpose of a pushrod in an engine?

Pushrods connect the lifters to the rocker arms in an overhead valve engine. As the lifter moves up and down with the camshaft's rotation, the pushrod transfers that motion to the rocker arm, which then opens the engine's intake and exhaust valves.

What does 'swedged end' mean for these pushrods?

A swedged end is a formed end on the pushrod, created by compressing the material to create a specific shape and radius. This meticulous forming process ensures a precise fit and smooth contact with the lifter and rocker arm, contributing to accurate valvetrain operation.

What is the benefit of heat-treated and black oxide finished pushrods?

Heat treating strengthens the metal, making the pushrods more resistant to bending or deforming under the stress of engine operation. The black oxide finish provides a layer of corrosion resistance and helps identify the part as a quality aftermarket component.

About this part

Product Details

This set includes sixteen Manley Performance swedged end pushrods, each measuring 6.800 inches in length with a .120 inch thickness and a 5/16 inch diameter. These pushrods are a key component in your engine's valvetrain, transferring the motion from the lifters to the rocker arms, which in turn open the valves. The swedged ends are meticulously formed with exact radii, ensuring a precise fit and smooth operation within the valvetrain assembly.

Manley Performance pays close attention to the details that matter for engine components. These pushrods feature excellent concentricity, meaning they are perfectly centered, and their lengths are closely controlled to maintain consistent geometry. This attention to detail helps ensure reliable performance and durability. The pushrods are heat-treated for added strength and finished with a black oxide coating, which offers some corrosion resistance and helps identify them as a quality aftermarket part.
