    There are three main types of metals used for connecting rods: 1. Aluminum, which is lightweight and suitable for high RPM applications up to 1,200 horsepower. 2. Steel, which can be used for moderate to high horsepower applications from 900-1,200 horsepower at RPMs up to 10,000. 3. Titanium, which is very lightweight and can be used for high performance engines with over 1,400 horsepower at RPMs up to 14,000. Connecting rods are commonly used in automobile and vehicle engines to connect the piston to the crankshaft.

    many manufactures are getting benefits of connecting Rod :

    TYPES OF CONNECTING ROD

    Basically there are 3 types of connecting rods such as

    1. ALUMINUM CONNECTING RODS

    Aluminum Connecting Rods are CNC machined out of their proprietary.


    Aluminum Connecting Rods are available for most any import or domestic applications by
    providing a fully custom rod at little or no cost above that of an "off-the-shelf" product.
    To be use in high horsepower (1,200 max) and high RPM (14,000 max) applications. Due to
    low fatigue life, when used under high stress situations drag racing only. Can be use safely
    with daily driving. Aluminum rods are the best choice for DSM's, strong and light.

    2. STEEL CONNECTING RODS

    Still connecting rods To be used in moderate to high horsepower (Forged 900 max, Billet
    1200 max) and moderate RPM (9500-10,000 max). Suitable for daily driving, endurance
    racing, and drag racing.

    manufactures makes the highest quality steel I beam connecting rods for the DSM.
    They are suitable for a multiplicity of applications.

    Even construction equipment like bulldozers, road rollers (earth movers ) use internal
    combustion engines.

    Thus, in modern era all kind of machines basically depends on piston, connecting rods
    and crank shafts. These are necessary for proper functioning of an internal combustion
    engine.
