ZRP RODS – CONNECTING ROD SET VW / AUDI 1.4 TFSI EA111 H-BEAM

The Audi/VW 1.4L TSI and TFSI connecting rods are H-beam-shaped and made from 4340 high-strength steel. The bushings are made from AMPCO 18 material for excellent wear and fatigue resistance and have a radial groove that serves as an oil reservoir. They also have a ribbed pin end, which minimizes pin end distortion under heavy inertial loads while saving excess weight. They are shot peened to relieve stress from the material and subjected to a multi-stage heat treatment to increase rigidity. Tight manufacturing tolerances ensure a perfect fit while optimizing oil clearances. Bending and torsion are strictly controlled. They are designed for high performance and extreme durability.
Each connecting rod includes ARP 2000 cap fasteners rated at 220,000 psi, optional ARP 625 material is available as an upgrade, and the entire kit comes with ARP moly and complete assembly instructions.Additional Machining ProcessesCentering Sleeves for a Perfect Fit and Accurate ReassemblyRibbed Cap Relief for Improved Big End Integrity in Extreme ApplicationsThrust Face Grooves for Weight ReductionTechnical Features of ZRP Connecting RodsTwo-Piece Forging for High StrengthShot Peening for Improved Fatigue LifeMagnaflux Inspection ensures the consistency of the forged material meets our high quality standardsDouble-Ribbed Caps for Increased SupportMulti-Stage Heat Treatment for Maximum Strength, Dimensional Stability, and Fatigue Resistance.CNC Machining for Superior Tolerances Accurate to 0.0002″Center-to-center is held to within 0.001″Finite Element Analysis (FEA) Computer-generated stress analysis of connecting rodsOptimal balance for weight-matched sets of ± 1 gramAdditional InformationApplication1.4L TFSI (2012-previous)Engine numberCAVD, CAXA, CAVA, BLG, CAX, CAV, CVAClipboardHole barsBolt size5/16″ShapeH-BEAMLength (CC)144.00Pin size 19.00Big Bore50,60BE Width23.00Weight Gr.467Set of4Degree of fasteningARP2000SeriesStandard seriesWeight467
