7/16 Stud - 2.600 Short Broached

The ARP 7/16 Stud - 2.600 Short Broached is a precision fastener engineered for high-performance engine and drivetrain assembly. This chromoly stud delivers the clamping force and durability demanded in racing, restoration, and heavy-duty mechanical applications where standard bolts fall short. Designed for both 7/16-14 and 7/16-20 thread pitches, it accommodates varying installation requirements across different engine platforms and specifications.

Manufactured from chromoly steel and finished in black oxide, the 7/16 Stud - 2.600 Short Broached offers superior strength-to-weight characteristics compared to mild steel fasteners. The broached design ensures consistent thread geometry and eliminates potential weak points found in rolled threads, resulting in improved fatigue resistance under cyclic loading. At 2.6 inches in length, this short stud is ideal for applications where space is limited or where standard-length fasteners would interfere with surrounding components. Black oxide coating provides corrosion resistance while maintaining a professional appearance suitable for show-quality builds.

This stud is particularly valuable for engine block work, cylinder head assembly, and transmission case fastening where reliable clamping and repeatability matter. Buyers restoring classic vehicles, building performance engines, or assembling competition-grade drivetrains rely on ARP's precision manufacturing to ensure proper preload and longevity. Each stud is sold individually, allowing you to replace fasteners as needed or complete a full assembly kit. Verify your application's specific thread pitch requirement (7/16-14 or 7/16-20) before ordering to ensure correct fit and performance.
