Forged Automotive Connecting Rod

A connecting rod item for the linkage used with this component. This automotive connecting rod is produced to the specified part drawing. The manufacturing specification includes forging.

Technical Overview

• Part: Automotive Connecting Rod
• Processing: Forged

Automotive Connecting Rod Design and Assembly

• Center distance: define the relationship between the two connection points.
• End interfaces: show bores, threads or other joint features required by the linkage.
• Movement envelope: identify adjoining parts and the clearance needed through the specified travel.

Material and Manufacturing Requirements

The material grade is to be defined with the order drawing. Identify the intended equipment and service environment so that the material requirement can be agreed before the manufacturing specification is finalized.

Forging is included in the specification. Identify the finished-part geometry and distinguish surfaces requiring later machining from those to be accepted in the forged condition.

Quotation Information

Specify the distance between connection centers, end-hole geometry and required movement clearances. Identify any bushings or fasteners supplied separately. Include the drawing revision, required quantity and any sample or inspection documentation needed for approval.
