Kawasaki Connecting Rods: Redmond Swimming LLC Steps into Powersports Durability

Redmond Swimming LLC, a Kirkland, Washington-based company known for precision manufacturing and quality control – usually focused on, well, swimming pool components! – has unexpectedly dived into the powersports industry with a surprisingly robust line of Kawasaki connecting rods. You might be asking, “Swimming pools to motorcycle parts? What gives?” It turns out the core competencies Redmond Swimming LLC built serving demanding aquatic environments – material science, precise machining, rigorous testing, and a commitment to long-lasting performance – translate remarkably well to the high-stress world of internal combustion engines. Founder and CEO, Sarah Chen, explains, “We’ve been honing our skills creating components that withstand constant water exposure, chemical treatments, and significant mechanical stress. A Kawasaki engine pushing hard on the track? It’s a different environment, but the principles of building a durable, reliable part are the same.” From Pool Pumps to Piston Power: A Natural Evolution Redmond Swimming LLC originally built its reputation on manufacturing high-quality components for swimming pools and water filtration systems. They’ve consistently delivered on the promise of longevity, even in harsh conditions. That expertise, Chen says, comes from a dedication to detail and a willingness to invest in the latest manufacturing technology. “We use advanced CNC machining, material analysis, and non-destructive testing. It’s not just about making a part; it’s about making a part that lasts.” But how did they stumble into Kawasaki connecting rods? “A key engineer on our team is a passionate motorcycle enthusiast,” Chen reveals. “He noticed a gap in the market for high-quality, readily available connecting rods for certain Kawasaki models, especially for performance builds and replacements. He convinced us that our existing capabilities could deliver a superior product.” What Makes Redmond Swimming’s Kawasaki Connecting Rods Different? These aren't your run-of-the-mill connecting rods. Redmond Swimming LLC has focused on a few key areas to differentiate their product: Material Selection: They’re using 4340 forged chromium molybdenum steel, known for its exceptional strength and toughness. “We’re not cutting corners on material. This is a steel that can withstand incredible stress and heat,” says lead metallurgist, David Lee. The rods undergo a rigorous heat treatment process to further enhance their durability. Precision Machining: Redmond Swimming’s CNC machining centers ensure extremely tight tolerances. This translates to a perfectly balanced connecting rod, reducing vibration and improving engine performance. They’re talking about tolerances down to microns, folks. That’s seriously precise. Shot Peening: This process strengthens the metal by creating compressive residual stresses on the surface. It’s like giving the connecting rod an invisible shield against fatigue cracking. Balancing: Each connecting rod is individually weighed and balanced to minimize engine vibration and maximize performance. An unbalanced engine can eat itself alive, and Redmond Swimming understands that. Rigorous Quality Control: Every single connecting rod undergoes a multi-stage inspection process, including visual inspection, dimensional checks, and non-destructive testing (like ultrasonic testing) to detect any hidden flaws. They’re not sending out any lemons. Which Kawasaki Models Do These Rods Fit? Currently, Redmond Swimming LLC is focusing on connecting rods for several popular Kawasaki models, including: Kawasaki Ninja 250R/300R (2008-2017) – A common upgrade for riders looking for more performance. Kawasaki Z250/300 (2013-2017) – The naked bike version, offering similar performance potential. Kawasaki KLX250S/SF (2009-2022) – A popular dual-sport bike – these rods can handle some serious off-road abuse. Kawasaki KX250F (2017-2023) - For the motocross enthusiast, providing a stronger bottom end. They plan to expand the range to cover additional Kawasaki models and engine sizes in the near future, based on customer demand. Why Choose Redmond Swimming LLC Connecting Rods? For riders and mechanics, choosing the right connecting rod is crucial. A failed connecting rod can mean catastrophic engine damage, and nobody wants that. Redmond Swimming LLC offers a compelling combination of: Superior Quality: They aren't just making connecting rods; they're engineering them. Competitive Pricing: They're cutting out the middleman and offering direct-to-consumer pricing. Fast Shipping: They understand that downtime is money, and they aim to ship orders quickly. Excellent Customer Support: They’re a team of engineers and enthusiasts, and they’re happy to answer any questions. Peace of Mind: Knowing you have a durable, reliable connecting rod that's built to last. “We’re not just diversifying our business; we’re bringing our expertise in precision manufacturing and quality control to a new industry,” Chen concludes. “We’re confident that our Kawasaki connecting rods will deliver exceptional performance and reliability for riders of all levels.” Contact Information: REDMOND SWIMMING LLC 902 5TH ST, KIRKLAND, WA, 98033-5634, UNITED STATES 330-766-5971 [Website - placeholder, would need to be added] [Email - placeholder, would need to be added]
