and Forecast 2017 - 2025
Connecting rod is considered an integral component in the internal combustion of
an automobile’s engine. It is a linkage between crankshaft and piston. The main
purpose of connecting rod is to transfer the translational motion of piston to
rotational motion of crankshaft. Connecting rods transmit power from the piston to
the crankshaft and delivers transmission. There are various materials and
manufacturing processes used for the manufacturing of connecting rods such as
powdered metallurgy, forging and casting. Connecting rod which function within the
engine go through a lot of pressure and cyclic loads that comprise of compressive
loads and dynamic tensile. Connecting rods are capable of withstanding bending
stress caused by the centrifugal force of the rotating crankshaft and the pull and
thrust in the piston. In addition, connecting rods ensures the smooth transmitting of
compression loads and axial tension.

Connecting rods finds application in farming, industrial and automotive engines. A
connecting rod is generally made up of steel or aluminum. Casting connecting rods
can be used in all type of engines such as diesel and gasoline but such connecting
rods lack longevity and show defects very early. In comparison to casting
connecting rods, steel forging connecting rods created by drop forging is way better
in performance and longevity. Steel forging connecting rods are made by drop
forging heated metal bars into net shape and then machining it to a finished
product. Steel forging connecting rods are also called billet rods due to its
manufacturing process of machining from blocks of billet steel. These rods can
withstand greater loads and ensure faster engine revolutions as compared to
casting connecting rods. However, steel forged connecting rods are expensive
compared to casting connecting rods and are applicable in high horsepower
engines.
The automotive connecting rod market can be classified by material, by application
and by geography. The material segment can be classified into steel, aluminum and
others. By application, the market can be segregated as passenger vehicles, light
commercial vehicles and heavy commercial vehicles. By geography, the market can
