State and justify material for push rod.

1 Answer

Answer :

Material:- 1018 steel tubing

Push rods are typically made of 1018 steel tubing, which is not strong enough for springs that have more than 400 psi of open pressure, or engines that exceed 7,000 rpm.

Pushrods made of 4130 or 4140 Chromoly which is a chrome-alloy steel with a medium carbon content and . 8% - 1.1% molybdenum for strength. Pushrods made of 4130 or 4140

Chromoly tubing are much stronger
