ARP Expands Harmonic Balancer Bolt Lineup Factory harmonic damper bolts are an area of concern for racers and performance enthusiasts for two reasons. First is the bolt’s ability to sustain the necessary clamping force when subjected to high RPM crankshaft flexing and twisting. The second is the extra abuse that comes from rotating the crank manually when adjusting valve lash, setting timing, etc. ARP Harmonic Balancer Bolts are manufactured from a premium grade 8740 chrome moly steel and heat-treated in-house to provide a nominal tensile strength of 190,000 psi. A large diameter quarter-inch-thick washer is included to help distribute the load over a wide area, while the bolts and washers are black oxide finished for extra protection. ARP-bolts.com 04.
