Pushrod - 3/8 .135 w/ .210 Radius 9.600 Long

The Pushrod - 3/8 .135 w/ .210 Radius 9.600 Long from TREND PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS is an essential valve train component for high-performance marine engines and aftermarket power plants. Built for anglers and boaters who demand reliability under extended throttle cycles and heavy-load conditions, this precision pushrod maintains consistent valve timing across aggressive RPM ranges. Whether you're running a performance outboard rebuild or a custom inboard installation, proper pushrod geometry directly impacts fuel efficiency, power delivery, and engine longevity on the water.

Manufactured to exacting tolerances, this 9.600-inch pushrod features a 3/8-inch diameter shaft with a .135-inch wall thickness, engineered to minimize flex while maintaining weight efficiency. The .210-inch radius design at the rocker arm interface ensures optimal contact geometry and reduces side loading that can cause premature wear in high-RPM applications. TREND PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS uses premium materials and precision manufacturing to deliver pushrods that resist bending, maintain clearance tolerances, and provide consistent valve lift across the entire operating envelope—critical factors when your boat depends on split-second throttle response.

This pushrod is ideal for engine builders, marine technicians, and serious boaters performing top-end rebuilds on V-8 or inline six-cylinder marine engines. Confirm your specific block, head, and rocker arm configuration before ordering, as pushrod length and end-radius geometry are application-specific. Installation requires proper valve train setup procedures and clearance checking to ensure the rocker arm ball and lifter cup make full contact. Weighing just 0.27 pounds, it's a lightweight component that delivers measurable improvements in valve train stability and engine responsiveness.
