The Honda 90011-881-000 Connecting Rod Bolt is a genuine OEM fastener designed for BF75, BF100, and BF8 outboard motors. As an authentic Honda part, it is manufactured to the same specification as the original hardware, ensuring the correct thread form, shank diameter, and torque retention for this application. This connecting rod bolt is listed for the BF75, BF100, and BF8 — verify your motor's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda supersedes hardware at serial breaks and the correct bolt for your unit may vary by production range.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hardware — sourced directly from Honda, this bolt meets the exact specifications originally used in BF75, BF100, and BF8 outboard motor assembly, with no substitution in thread form or head geometry.
- Critical Fastener Integrity — the connecting rod bolt is one of the highest-stress fasteners in the engine; a bolt that has stretched, been over-torqued, or is the wrong grade can lead to catastrophic internal failure at operating RPM.
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda updates fastener specifications at production breaks, so confirm your motor's serial number against the compatibility table to ensure this is the correct bolt for your engine.
- Direct OEM Replacement — this bolt installs exactly as the original, with no modifications needed to tooling or procedure, keeping your rebuild or rod replacement straightforward.
The connecting rod bolt clamps the connecting rod cap to the rod itself, securing the rod around the crankshaft journal. When a connecting rod bolt stretches, loosens, or fails, the result is immediate and severe internal engine damage, making it one of the most important fasteners to replace with a part that meets the original specification. Using the correct Honda OEM bolt ensures the clamping load and thread engagement are precisely what the engine was designed around.
