ARP Ultra-Torque Fastener Assembly Lube Sachet

These rods use ARP conrod bolts, usually ARP2000 as standard with L19 or CA625+ available on some models. ARP2000 bolts are generally torqued to around 55 ft-lb for 3/8 inch and around 75 ft-lb for 7/16 inch when using ARP Ultra-Torque lube. L19 bolts must be tightened by stretch, not torque. Always refer to the latest ARP instructions for exact specifications.

No. Like other performance rods, they do not carry a horsepower or performance warranty. Spool warrants workmanship before installation, but once fitted, power handling depends entirely on machining, clearances, tuning, fuel, boost level and rpm.

They often do. Crank journals and pin bores vary between engines, so your builder should measure the big end oil clearance and small end pin clearance and hone as required before assembly.

ARP Ultra-Torque Fastener Assembly Lube is designed to reduce friction and prevent galling during the installation of fasteners. This ensures that you achieve accurate torque readings, which is critical for maintaining the integrity and performance of your engine.

The ARP Ultra-Torque Lube comes in a convenient 5 oz sachet. Apply a small amount directly to the threads and under the heads of the fasteners before installation. This will help maximise clamping force and ensure a smooth installation process.

Yes, ARP Ultra-Torque Lube is suitable for both automotive and high-performance applications. It is particularly beneficial in situations where precise torque settings are critical, such as when installing conrod bolts or other high-stress fasteners.

While ARP Ultra-Torque Lube is specifically formulated for ARP fasteners, it can generally be used with other high-performance fasteners as well. However, always refer to the fastener manufacturer's recommendations for best practices.

Using ARP Ultra-Torque Lube helps ensure that fasteners are properly torqued, which contributes to the overall reliability and performance of your engine. By minimising friction, it allows for more consistent clamping force, reducing the risk of fastener failure under high-stress conditions.
