ARP manufactures these 3\/8\" diameter, 1.000\" under-head length bolts entirely in-house to tight tolerances, producing a kit that includes premium washers and is rated at 170,000 psi tensile strength — significantly higher than typical Grade 8 hardware. The black oxide finish provides surface protection and a low-profile aesthetic that pairs well with most engine bays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do these bolts improve exhaust header installation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese bolts are designed to maintain clamping force as the header and cylinder head cycle through heat and cool phases. The high tensile rating reduces the risk of bolt stretch or failure, while the consistent under-head length ensures proper engagement without bottoming out in blind holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeat-treated 8740 chrome-moly steel for superior strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e170,000 psi tensile rating minimizes elongation under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.000\" under-head length fits common header stud depths\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes premium washers for even load distribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAre these bolts compatible with my vehicle’s header studs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ARP 100-1110 set uses a 3\/8\" diameter with a conventional hex head, matching many OEM and aftermarket header stud setups.
