This main stud kit is manufactured from high-quality 8740 Chrome Moly and incorporates a proprietary element for added strength and durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA tensile strength between 220K psi and 236K psi and a yield strength between 210K psi and 230K psi ensures these studs can handle the increased performance of your application. In addition, the threads are rolled after heat-treating to deliver optimum fatigue strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUpgrading from the OEM main bolts to studs also allows you to obtain much more precise torque readings. A bolt twists as it is tightened, so it's reacting to two different forces at the same time. With a stud, the torquing force gets applied to the vertical axis, resulting in a more even clamping force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, the studs offer easier engine assembly and proper alignment of the main bearing caps. Unlike OEM Torque-To-Yield (TTY) bolts which must be replaced after each use, these studs are reusable. Kit includes washers and 12-point nuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes Washers \u0026amp; 12-Point Nuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYield Strength 210K psi - 230K psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTensile Strength 220K psi - 236K psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill Not Stretch Like The Factory Main Bolts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThread Has Been Rolled After Heat Treatment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-Strength 8740 Chrome Moly Construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10mm Studs Test Out At A Max Load: Over 120KN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStuds Are Reusable, Unlike Torque-To-Yield (TTY) Bolts Which Much Be Replaced After Each Use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTech Tips\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eXDP Thread Cleaning Chasers (Sold Separately):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe XD40124TC is a great add-on that will be critical during installation. Thread Cleaning Chasers are an excellent tool to have on-hand to ensure you have properly cleaned the threads in your engine block before the installation of any fasteners. Clean threads provide accurate torque readings and will help give you peace of mind during your engine build or head gasket repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eXDP X-TRA Slick Engine \u0026amp; Fastener Assembly Lubricant (Sold Separately):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe use of XD541 is highly recommended during engine assembly. Apply XDP X-TRA Slick Lubricant to head studs, head bolts, main studs, main bolts, connecting rod bolts, and any other fasteners used during engine assembly. Using a proper assembly lubricant during fastener installation reduces friction and torque pre-load scatter in the torquing sequence, while also helping to prevent thread galling and seizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis kit will not fit on early 1997 model trucks with 14mm mains. To confirm fitment from the exterior of the engine, you can check turbo oil drain ports. If your engine has (2) ports on the passenger side, it will take these 12mm studs. If your engine has (1) port it will require 14mm main studs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Berry Performance \u0026 Accessories","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47541834318082,"sku":"XD3012MS-HVCD","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/berryperformanceacc.com\/products\/main-stud-kit-x220-series-1998-5-2007-dodge-5-9l-diesel-without-girdle-xdp-xtreme-diesel-performance","provider":"Berry Performance \u0026 Accessories","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
