Default Katech rod bolts?

Has anyone used the Katech connecting rod bolts? I would like opinions from anyone who has installed them. Here is a link

I'm using them on my new build. They're awesome bolts to use if you're replacing them in the car, because they're similar in weight and design to stock bolts and won't cause the big end of your rod to distort when installing them.
