These alloy steel rod end bolts have the highest tensile strength of any steel fully threaded rod end bolt we offer. For maximum mounting flexibility, cut the fully threaded shaft to whatever length you need. Also known as swing bolts and eyebolts, rod end bolts have no moving parts. They're designed to make pivoting or hinge movements in applications that don't need to compensate for misalignment.

With a rubber bushing, these bolts reduce noise and vibration—attach them to rods, pipes, tubes, and cable linkages that have male threading. They also allow for changes in alignment. Use them in hydraulic systems, steering pumps, control cables, vehicle suspensions, and pivot and hinge movements. They’re commonly known as isolated rod ends.

Made of steel, these rod ends generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends. They don’t come lubricated, so you’ll need to lubricate during installation and on an ongoing basis.

Rod ends with an oversized shank have a shank that is one size larger than the ID to handle greater stress.

Zinc-plated steel rod ends provide moderate corrosion resistance.

A carbon fiber-reinforced insert or PTFE liner reduces wear, handles shock loads, and eliminates the need for lubrication. Made of steel, these rod ends generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends. All are zinc plated, so they resist corrosion for a short time before the finish is consumed and the steel is exposed.

For ease of installation, these rod ends come with a compatible jam nut. They have an eyelet and a ball that swivel to support angular misalignment. All are carbon steel, so they handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends. However, they don’t resist corrosion. 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.

An oil-embedded bronze insert slowly releases lubricant throughout the life of the rod end. These rod ends will require ongoing lubrication. Made of zinc-plated steel, they generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends and offer moderate corrosion resistance.

With at least 55° of ball swivel, these rod ends accommodate greater misalignment than any other externally threaded rod end we offer. They generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends. A PTFE liner allows smooth ball rotation and eliminates the need for lubrication.

Zinc-plated steel rod ends provide more corrosion resistance than black-oxide steel.

With at least 55° of ball swivel, these rod ends accommodate greater misalignment than any other internally threaded rod end we offer. They generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends and offer some corrosion resistance. A PTFE liner allows smooth ball rotation and eliminates the need for lubrication. All are zinc plated, so they resist corrosion for a short time before the finish is consumed and the steel is exposed.

Made of cadmium-plated steel, these rod ends generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends. They provide moderate corrosion resistance. All have a PTFE liner that allows smooth ball rotation and eliminates the need for lubrication. Liner meets SAE AS81820.

Seals keep out dirt and an oil-embedded foam insert slowly releases lubricant for a long life. You can remove the insert to add more oil if it starts to run dry. These rod ends have an eyelet and a ball that swivels to support angular misalignment. Made of zinc-plated steel, they have moderate corrosion resistance.

Made of stainless steel, these rod ends provide excellent corrosion resistance. A PTFE liner allows smooth ball rotation and eliminates the need for lubrication.

Made of stainless steel, these rod ends provide excellent corrosion resistance. A PTFE liner allows smooth ball rotation and eliminates the need for lubrication.

These anodized aluminum rod ends are lighter than stainless steel rod ends and have good corrosion resistance. A PTFE liner allows smooth ball rotation and eliminates the need for lubrication.

These anodized aluminum rod ends are lighter than stainless steel rod ends and have good corrosion resistance. A PTFE liner allows smooth ball rotation and eliminates the need for lubrication.

Made of impact-resistant nylon, these rod ends withstand corrosion as well as fuels, lyes, and weak acids. They are also 80% lighter than steel rod ends. A self-lubricating nylon ball provides maximum abrasion resistance and eliminates the need for lubrication.

Rod ends with an oversized shank have a shank that is one size larger than the ID to handle greater stress.

Rod ends with Nylon/PTFE insert have a durable, self-sealing insert that reduces wear. Rod ends with zinc-plated steel insert provide moderate corrosion resistance.

These steel rod ends handle loads that are at least 25% higher than other comparably sized rod ends. PTFE allows smooth rotation and eliminates the need for lubrication.

Rod ends with Nylon/PTFE insert have a durable, self-sealing insert that reduces wear. Rod ends with zinc-plated steel insert provide moderate corrosion resistance.

A double row of precision ball bearings allows high speeds and smooth operation. Rod ends are made of cadmium- or zinc-plated steel, which both offer moderate corrosion resistance. Seals keep lubricant in and dirt out.

Cadmium-plated steel rod ends have lubricant that meets MIL-PRF-81322. They won’t require ongoing lubrication. Those with an oversized shank have a shank that is one size larger than the ID to handle greater stress.

An innovative body design keeps the ball from being pushed out when supporting thrust loads. Rod ends are zinc-plated steel for moderate corrosion resistance and have a self-lubricating polyurethane insert.
