High-performance forged connecting rod set for Fiat 126 / 500

🔧 High-Performance Forged Conrods – Made in Italy

Brand: PBP
Application: Fiat 126 / Fiat 500 twin-cylinder engines
Production: 🇮🇹 100% Made in Italy

🛠 Material and Construction

PBP conrods are manufactured using full-grain forging from 35NCD16 (Ni-Cr-Mo) steel, an alloy with high strength and excellent toughness, technically superior to traditional 4340 / EN24 chrome-molybdenum steel.

• Material: 35NCD16 alloy steel
• Tensile strength: ≈ 1,850 – 2,000 MPa
• High resistance to alternating stresses
• Excellent performance at high RPM
• Superior cyclic fatigue resistance
• Long-term structural stability

⚙️ Design and Technical Features

• Structure: Reinforced H-Beam
• Forging: hot forging with controlled grain orientation
• Precision CNC machining of the conrod head and foot
• Accurate balancing of each pair

Available center-to-center distances:

• 118 mm
• 120 mm
• 124 mm
• 126 mm
• 130 mm

Various lengths available to suit stock configurations, long stroke, and custom builds.

🔩 High-Performance Fasteners

• High-strength motorsport-specification bolts
• Performance equivalent to the ARP2000 class
• Excellent clamping retention
• Resistance to dynamic and cyclic loads
• Stability even under heavy-duty conditions

🔥 Performance and Reliability

PBP – Klaudia Lorens conrods are designed for:

• Modified road engines
• Sporting applications
• Racing use

The H-Beam design combined with 35NCD16 material ensures:

• High structural rigidity
• Excellent fatigue resistance
• Long service life even under loads and RPM higher than stock

Final performance always depends on the overall engine setup: crankshaft, balancing, maximum RPM, lubrication.
