S/S Carburetor Stud Kit 5/16in x 2.700in OAL

The ARP Stainless Steel Carburetor Stud Kit 5/16in x 2.700in OAL (Part No. 400-2402) delivers a fastening solution engineered for carburetor mounting applications where corrosion resistance and reliable clamping are essential. This four-piece set features stainless steel construction with polished finish, combined with matching hex nuts, providing the durability and appearance upgrade that separates a professional rebuild from a temporary fix.

Each stud measures 5/16 inch in diameter with 2.7 inches overall length, sized to accommodate both 5/16-18 and 5/16-24 thread pitches commonly encountered in carburetor mounting hardware. The stainless steel construction resists oxidation and corrosion that would otherwise compromise fastener integrity over time, while the polished finish resists rust and maintains appearance through repeated engine bay exposure. Stainless fasteners eliminate galvanic corrosion issues associated with mixed-metal assemblies and simplify future service intervals.

This kit addresses a specific pain point in engine rebuilds and carburetor restoration: original studs often seize, corrode, or strip during removal after years of thermal cycling and fuel system exposure. Replacing the complete stud set during carburetor service prevents future extraction problems and ensures consistent clamp load across all mounting points. The included hex nuts provide a complete fastening package, eliminating the need for separate hardware sourcing.

ARP is recognized in the automotive fastener market for manufacturing-grade hardware designed to withstand repeated mechanical stress and environmental exposure. This carburetor stud kit represents a straightforward upgrade path for builders prioritizing long-term reliability and corrosion resistance over the engine's service life.
