Description
When you’re rebuilding that International Harvester engine, every bolt matters—but the connecting rod capscrews are absolutely critical. These are the bolts that hold your connecting rod caps in place, keeping those pistons properly positioned as they fire up and down thousands of times per minute. If one of these fails or stretches beyond spec, you’re looking at catastrophic engine damage that’ll cost way more than doing the job right the first time.
What You’re Getting
- High-strength bolt engineered to handle the extreme forces inside your engine
- Proper thread pitch and length for International Harvester specifications
- Quality construction that meets or exceeds original equipment standards
- Essential component for any connecting rod service or engine rebuild
Built for Real Farm Work
This capscrew is designed for International Harvester tractors that have been the workhorses of American agriculture for decades. Whether you’re rebuilding a classic Farmall or servicing a more recent IH model, these engines were built to run hard and long—but that means the internal components take a beating over the years.
Made to Last
Engine bolts aren’t the place to cut corners, and this one’s built to handle the incredible stresses inside a working tractor engine. The material and heat treatment are designed to maintain proper clamping force through thousands of heat cycles and years of vibration.
Good to Know
Always replace connecting rod bolts during any engine rebuild—never reuse old ones, even if they look fine. Use a torque wrench and follow the proper sequence when installing, and consider using new nuts if your caps use them. Keep these bolts clean and lightly oiled during assembly to ensure accurate torque readings.
