Eagle is well known for their high quality ESP H beam connecting rods
and SIR I beam rods. Eagle products are found in everything from serious Ford and Mercury
street cars, to hot street strip cars, to all out drag, oval and road racing Ford and
Mercury engines. These connecting rods offer high strength, durability, and lighter weight
in many installations. Eagle connecting rods have earned a reputation for providing great
products at reasonable prices.

Eagle H beam connecting rods are manufactured from a TWO-PIECE FORGING. The
forging process forces the grain into the shape of a connecting rod, resulting in a
superior fatigue life. The rod cap is forged separately so that the grain runs
perpendicular to the load forces, which strengthens the rod. Eagle H rods are forged from
4340 grade steel and although it is a more expensive process, all ESP Eagle rods
also include a higher content of nickel and chrome, which increases the strength and
fatigue life without making the connecting rod brittle.
Small Block Ford H beam Eagle connecting rods feature:
Standard and Longer than stock length rods for many applications
3-D design offers the advantages of reduced weight without sacrificing strength
2 piece forging for increased strength

Each forging is X-rayed, sonic tested and magnafluxed to insure quality

Small Block Ford Eagle SIR I beam
connecting rods
Eagle Specialty Products SIR connecting rods are an economically priced alternative to
the time and expense involved in reworking a set of stock OEM rods. SIR connecting rods
are forged from 5140 steel and most are available for both pressed fit pin use, or bushed
to work with full floating piston pins. ESP I beam SIR Eagle connecting rods
utilize ARP 3/8" Wave Lok bolts and nuts. Why pay as much or more to recondition a
set of stock rods, install new HP rod bolts, and still have an old OEM rod, made of weaker
material? SIR rods are economically priced and are often less expensive than having your
old stock rods reconditioned.
