The Pauter connecting rod set for Audi I5 engines is a high-quality, forged connecting rod set designed for 10V and 20V engines, including the 3B, 7A, AAN, ABY, and ADU . Featuring a unique 144/20 cross beam design, this set offers exceptional strength and reliability, crucial for both everyday vehicles and performance applications. The connecting rods are machined from E4340 vacuum-melted chromoly steel, known for its durability and fatigue resistance. CNC machining ensures each rod meets strict tolerances, optimizing fit and performance. At 144mm in length and with a 20mm wrist pin, these rods are directly compatible with OEM or 034Motorsport Coated Rod Bearings. One of the key features of the Pauter rods is their design, which eliminates thin and non-uniform cross-sections. This improves fatigue resistance and ensures that stress is distributed more evenly over a larger surface area. The rod's non-tapered profile also helps reduce damaging stresses, contributing to the overall longevity of the engine components. The rods are also fully hardened to Rockwell C36 and shot-peened for added strength. They are end-to-end balanced, which is essential for a smooth-running engine. The Pauter Rod Set comes with ARP 2000 bolts, which are rated at 220,000 psi, ensuring a solid connection. The rods also feature standard aluminum-bronze wrist pin bushings, further enhancing performance. These connecting rods are perfect for any mechanic or race car driver looking for strong components for their Audi engine. Ideal for racing or everyday enhancements!
