Carrillo Industries is recognized as one of the finest manufacture of connecting rods for high performance engines. The Carrillo connecting rod is a precision, high strength, quality piece. More than forty years of experience enable Carrillo to design and manufacture a connecting rod that reflects the optimum balance between lightweight and durability.
Carrillo’s state of the art manufacturing facility in San Clemente, California is a symbol of this continued commitment to their customers. We have invested- and continue to invest- in development of materials, state-of-the-art machines, cutting edge designs and improved technologies. In addition, considerable resources have been added to reduce lead times, improve quality control and expand their engineering department to further enforce their pledge to provide the industry’s best designed connecting rod and customer support.

Before leaving Carrillo's facility, each rod is subjected to a variety of quality checks, to ensure dimensions meet
their stringent tolerance requirements. They employ a variety of equipment, including a CMM, Air and Height-
Gages, a 2D measuring system to name just a few.
The initial quality assurance starts with selection of steels, followed by a strict forging and heat treating process.
As a rod moves through their manufacturing process, quality assurance follows every step of the process; testing
dimensional integrity and quality, providing a paper trail of certification through out the entire manufacturing and
shipping process. Every rod leaves their facility with a specification card. This spec card displays a part number,
critical dimensions, weights and job number, all for ease of identification and tracking.
At Carrillo, they not only build high performance connecting rods, they provide service, knowledge and support.
Their high-tech design, engineering and manufacturing operation is backed by a world-class service department.
Their full staff of dedicated technicians, engineers and customer service is prepared to help with all of your design,
application and service needs.
