Materials for making Connecting Rod

Connecting rods can be made from various grades of structural steel, aluminum, and titanium. Steel rods are the most widely produced and used as connecting rods. Their applications are best used for daily drivers and endurance racing due to their high strength and long fatigue life. The only problem with using steel rods is that the material is extremely heavy, which consumes more power and adds stress to the rotating assembly. Below mentioned materials are taken as connecting rod materials- Carbon Steels, High strength low alloy steel, Corrosion-resistant high strength low alloy steel, and Quenched and tempered alloy steel.
