ARP M10 x 1.25 x 60 Stainless Steel Hex Bolts, 12mm Socket, 5 Pack
$30.45

If you’re diving into the world of diesel performance, you probably know that the right fasteners can make or break your build. ARP has been in the game since 1968, and they’ve really honed their craft over the years. These M10 x 1.25 x 60 SS Hex Bolts are a prime example of their commitment to quality and performance.

When it comes to handling the intense loads that come with diesel engines, these bolts are designed to take a beating. They’ve got a solid construction that ensures they won’t let you down when the pressure is on. The installation pre-loads are no joke; they stretch quite a bit during setup, which means they’re ready to handle whatever you throw at them.

Now, let’s talk specs. These bolts come with a 12mm hex socket size, so make sure you’ve got the right tools on hand. They’ve got a torque value of 54 ft-lbs (or 73.2 Nm for those who prefer metric), which is pretty solid for keeping everything tight. The overall length is 60mm, with a thread length of 26mm and a grip length of 34mm. The thread diameter is M10 x 1.25mm, and the grip diameter is 10mm. Plus, the head height is a neat 9.0mm, and the collar diameter measures 18.5mm.

Each pack comes with five bolts, so you’ll have enough to tackle a decent project without scrambling for more. If you’re serious about your diesel setup, these ARP bolts should definitely be on your radar. They’re built for performance, reliability, and to give you that extra peace of mind when you’re pushing your rig to the limit.

The Story Behind ARP Bolts

ARP (Automotive Racing Products) was founded by Gary Holzapfel in 1968 when he noticed his drag-racing friends succumbing to bolt-induced engine failure as a result of poor-quality fasteners. He drew upon his expertise in the aerospace industry to develop a solution, which turned into a successful business nonetheless. 

Since its inception, ARP has been engineering and perfecting a wide range of bolts, studs, nuts, and other fasteners for engines, cylinder heads, headers, wheels, and transmissions. Today, ARP remains the undisputed world leader in automotive fasteners. Racing aficionados everywhere know and recognize the ARP brand and can vouch for its quality.

What Makes ARP Bolts So Special?

Located in Ventura, California, all ARP processes from raw wire to finished fasteners are conducted in-house, right here in the USA. The company continually improves its processes with strict quality control guidelines and is dedicated to producing products that are second to none. Simply put, ARP Bolts are better than the competition because of their quality materials and advanced processes. 

ARP prides itself on using only top-quality materials that are above the usual “aerospace-grade” quality that other manufacturers settle for. For example, while 8740 Chromoly steel has four different grades, ARP only uses the top two, SDF and CHQ. These grades cost twice as much as the lower commercial and aircraft grades, but deliver “zero defect” quality that you can trust each and every time.

ARP Bolts are built to withstand serious racing, possess greater tensile strengths, and can survive higher stress levels than most aircraft fasteners. ARP is dedicated to creating fasteners that boast ultimate strength and durability to ensure they last race after race. Its product lineup ranges from quality high-performance OEM parts to exotic specialty hardware for IndyCar, NASCAR, NHRA drag racing, Formula 1, and even marine applications.
