Construction & Design

The ARP 12pt Hardware Kit features a robust construction utilizing 8740 chromoly steel, a material renowned for its high strength-to-weight ratio and durability. The heat-treating process enhances the tensile strength, allowing these bolts to withstand extreme mechanical stresses without deformation or failure. The black oxide finish not only provides corrosion resistance but also reduces glare and adds a professional appearance to your assembly.

The 12-point head design offers increased contact surface area, enabling higher torque application and reducing the risk of stripping or rounding off the head during installation. This design is especially beneficial in tight or hard-to-reach spaces where tool access is limited. The precision machining ensures each fastener meets strict tolerances, guaranteeing a secure fit and optimal performance in critical applications.
