ARP RB30 Head Stud Kit (SOHC)

Description

ARP RB30 Head Stud Kit (SOHC)

Automotive Racing Products (ARP) are the leading brand in fastener technology. All fasteners are made with the highest quality materials with quality assurance testing.

ARP manufactures fasteners from a wide assortment of materials ranging from popular stainless steel and 8740 chrome moly to exotic alloys that have been developed to handle space travel.

ARP RB30 Head Stud Kit (SOHC) Options

ARP RB30 Head Studs (SOHC) are available in 11mm or 1/2″ stud sizes. Please note that 11mm is a direct factory drop-in replacement and 1/2″ studs require machining.

Please also note that RB30 DOHC and RB30 SOHC head studs are different. Shop RB30 DOHC Head Studs here!

Three different materials are also available: premium grade 8740 Chrome Moly, ARP2000^® or Custom Age 625+ (CA625+). Every kit includes hardened parallel washers for an even load distribution and accurate torque readings.

• 11mm 8740 Chrome Moly: Factory drop-in replacement head stud that would suit SOHC RB30 (Part Number: 999-4215)
• 11mm ARP2000^® :Factory drop-in replacement head stud that would suit SOHC RB30 (Part Number: 202-4216F)
• 1/2″ 8740 Chrome Moly: Requires machining to suit SOHC RB30 (Part Number: 999-4216)
• 1/2″ CA625+: Requires machining to suit SOHC RB30 (Part Number: 999-4216-CA)

Please note: Lead times may apply for 1/2″ Head Studs Kits.

ARP RB30 Head Stud Kit (SOHC) Materials:

• 8740 Chrome Moly: Until the development of today’s modern alloys, chrome moly was popularly considered a high strength material. Now viewed as only moderate strength, 8740 chrome moly is seen as a good tough steel, with adequate fatigue properties for most racing applications, but only if the threads are rolled after heat-treatment, as is the standard ARP production practice. Typically, chrome moly is classified as a quench and temper steel, that can be heat-treated to deliver tensile strengths between 180,000 and 210,000 psi.
• ARP2000^®: ARP2000 is an alloy steel that can be safely heat treated to a higher level, producing a greater strength material than 8740. While 8740 and ARP2000 share similar characteristics – ARP2000 is capable of achieving a clamp load at 220,000 psi. ARP2000 is used widely in short track and drag racing as an up-grade from 8740 chrome moly in both steel and aluminum rods. Stress corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement are typically not a problem, providing care is taken during installation.
• Custom Age 625 Plus^®: This newly formulated super-alloy demonstrates superior fatigue cycle life, tensile strength and toughness – with complete resistance to atmospheric corrosion and oxidation. ARP is the first to develop manufacturing and testing processes for fasteners with Custom Age 625+. Best of all it is less expensive and expected to soon replace MP-35 as the material of choice in the high strength, super-alloy field. Typical tensile strength is 260,000-280,000 psi.
