All Oliver rods are precision-machined using only premium mill-certified aircraft quality E4340 chrome moly alloy, heat-treated to produce a 100% martensite grain structure.

Oliver I-beam connecting rods feature the exclusive “parabolic beam” design that reduces beam stress and delivers a very high strength-to-weight ratio. Oliver’s standard light rods have been designed for the heart of the racing engine category.

These rods represent the perfect balance between weight and strength. In applications where weight is the primary concern, Oliver offers its Ultra Light series. For those of you pushing beyond the limits where weight takes a back seat to absolute strength, Oliver’s Speedway and Max series rods are the answer.
