ARP2000 is an alloy steel that can be safely heat treated to a higher level producing a greater strength material than 8740. While 8740 and ARP2000 share similar characteristics C ARP2000 is capable of achieving a clamp load at 220000 psi. ARP2000 is used widely in short track and drag racing as an upgrade from 8740 chrome moly in both steel and aluminum rods. Stress corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement are typically not a problem providing care is taken during installation.
