About Rod Ends

Swivel Joints
Also known as spherical bearings, swivel joints support angular misalignment. Press them into a hole or housing where a ball joint rod end won’t fit. They need to be lubricated when first installed and periodically after that. Apply any type of bearing grease to the ball, and rotate it to work it into the races.
Sealed joints keep grease in and contaminants out.

Extended-Life Swivel Joints
Specially designed lubrication channels and integral seals allow these joints to last up to three times longer than other swivel joints. Also known as spherical bearings, they support angular misalignment. Press into a hole or housing where a ball joint rod end won’t fit. All have seals to keep grease in and contaminants out. Joints come greased and can be lubricated through a hole in the housing without removing the load.
