Able to stand up to frequent use, these linkages offer excellent wear resistance. They consist of ball joint rod ends with a ball stud attached to simplify mounting.

These internally threaded linkages have a slippery PTFE liner that reduces wear and eliminates the need for lubrication.

An oil-embedded bronze insert slowly releases lubricant throughout the life of the joint.

Along with excellent wear resistance, these linkages have a grease fitting for easy lubrication. An internally threaded rod end connects to threaded rods, studs, and other parts with male threads.

These ball joint linkages are made of steel.

Use these bent linkages for light duty applications.

Use these linkages to create inline pivoting connections. They have internal threads on one end and external threads on the other.

These internally threaded rod ends have an eyelet and a ball that swivels to support angular misalignment. Also known as rod-end bearings.

A carbon fiber-reinforced insert or PTFE liner reduces wear, handles shock loads, and eliminates the need for lubrication.

Connect your grease gun to the fitting to lubricate. Internal threads mate with rod end bolts, threaded rods, and other components with male threads.

An oil-embedded bronze insert slowly releases lubricant throughout the life of these internally threaded rod ends.

These internally threaded rod ends have an oil-embedded bronze insert that slowly releases lubricant over time. Connect your grease gun to the fitting to relubricate.

With at least 55° of ball swivel, these rod ends accommodate greater misalignment than any other internally threaded rod end we offer.

Made to extremely tight tolerances, these internally threaded rod ends are for applications that require positioning accuracy, such as accelerators and other types of control linkages.

Made of cadmium-plated steel, these internally threaded rod ends generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends.

Made of stainless steel, these externally threaded rod ends provide excellent corrosion resistance.

These anodized aluminum rod ends are lighter than stainless steel rod ends and have good corrosion resistance. Internal threads mate with rod end bolts, threaded rods, and other components with male threads.

Made of impact-resistant nylon, these externally threaded rod ends withstand corrosion as well as fuels, lyes, and weak acids. They do not require lubrication and are 80% lighter than steel rod ends.

These internally threaded steel rod ends handle loads that are at least 25% higher than other comparably sized rod ends.

These internally threaded rod ends have an innovative body design that keeps the ball from being pushed out when supporting thrust loads.

Along with internal threads, these rod ends have a double row of precision ball bearings that allows high speeds and smooth operation.

A slippery PTFE liner reduces wear and eliminates the need for lubrication.

A slippery PTFE liner reduces wear and eliminates the need for lubrication.

Specially designed lubrication channels and integral seals allow these joints to last up to three times longer than other swivel joints.

Made from stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance in damp environments.

A spring-loaded socket locks your gas spring to the ball stud—squeeze the ends together to attach and to release.

Keep a convenient selection of gas spring fittings on hand—assortments include ball socket end fittings, eyelet end fittings, and ball studs.

Ball-and-socket connections allow 360° positioning.

Joints have a fixed 2 1/2" overall length.

Stainless steel U-joints are more corrosion resistant than steel U-joints.
