ARP Central bolt crankshaft
Made in USA
The factory-fitted central bolt is one of the biggest problems with the 16V engine.
This interface between the crankshaft and timing belt is too weak as standard and often leads to major engine damage.
This center bolt designed by Integrated and manufactured by ARP solves this problem.
Manufactured from aerospace grade materials, resulting in extremely consistent quality and strength. The center bolt increases the clamping force by over 10% and ensures a slip-free drive between crankshaft and timing belt.
Tightening torque:
Use a 13/16 " multi-tooth to tighten your new IE / ARP center bolt with red Loctite to 105Nm + 1/4 turn.
Suitable for all vehicles with a 1.8-2.0l 16V engine such as:

VW Passat
Seat Ibiza / Cordoba / Toledo
