Corrosion-Resistant Fully Threaded Rod End Bolts
These rod end bolts are good for wet and corrosive environments—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.
303 and 304 stainless steel rod end bolts won't rust in humid, wet, and washdown environments. They're stronger than brass bolts and nearly as strong as steel. They will rust when exposed to salt water and chemicals, however. ASTM rod end bolts meet a standard for material.
DIN 444 rod end bolts meet an international standard for rod end dimensions.

Partially Threaded Rod End Bolts
Create pivoting connections in applications that require high shear strength—the partially threaded shank of these rod end bolts withstands more side force than a fully threaded shank. Also known as swing bolts and eyebolts, they are used to create hinges, turnbuckles, and tie downs. Unlike ball joint rod ends, these rod end bolts are made from a single piece of metal, so they wear down more slowly and have a more controlled swing. However, because they do not have a moving ball joint, they do not compensate for angular misalignment.
Made from steel, they are stronger and more wear resistant than stainless steel rod end bolts, but they are not as corrosion resistant. Rod end bolts with a black-oxide finish have a dark, matte coating that keeps the steel from rusting in dry environments.
Rod end bolts that meet DIN 444 adhere to international dimensional standards, ensuring they are compatible with other parts and tools.

Clevis Rod Ends
These steel rod ends are machined to SAE standards. Also called yoke-end linkages, they support pivoting movement along one axis when threaded onto shafts, rods, valve pistons, and other assemblies.

Chemical-Resistant Clevis Rod Ends
In addition to offering superior chemical resistance, these lightweight, fiber-reinforced nylon rod ends also reduce noise and vibration. Also called yoke-end linkages, they support pivoting movement along one axis when threaded onto shafts, rods, valve pistons, and other assemblies.

Easy-Adapt Clevis Rod Ends
Make quick adjustments to these rod ends by inserting and releasing the clevis pins without the need to bend them into place. Also called yoke-end linkages, they support pivoting movement along one axis when threaded onto shafts, rods, valve pistons, and other assemblies. All are zinc-plated steel for moderate corrosion resistance.
