The Argus 410 was an inverted air cooled V 12 light aircraft engine first produced in 1937. The engine marked a departure from earlier Argus engines in that it had new construction techniques which gave the engine greater operating speeds and power. The engine featured smaller 105 mm x 115 mm cylinders with deep finned steel cooling slots, aluminum heads, geared supercharger,a steel alloy crankshaft and a magnesium alloy crankcase. The engine weighed approximately 315 kg and produced 485 hp at 3,100 rpm. Approximately 20,900 engines were produced.
The more powerful and refined Argus As 411 was developed from it.
