About Rod Ends

Find the right rod end type and thread direction to control motion, adjust tension, and handle misalignment.

Ball Joint 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.

Zinc-Plated Carbon Steel—Zinc-plated steel rod ends provide moderate corrosion resistance.

High-Load Ball Joint Rod Ends

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.

Nylon/PTFE Insert—Rod ends with Nylon/PTFE insert have a durable, self-sealing insert that reduces wear.

Internally Threaded Chemical-Resistant Ball Joint Rod Ends

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.

Internally Threaded Oil-Embedded Ball Joint Rod Ends with Grease Fitting

An oil-embedded bronze insert slowly releases lubricant to the rod end. Relubrication is recommended but not required. Connect your grease gun to the fitting to relubricate. Made of zinc-plated steel, these rod ends generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends and offer moderate corrosion resistance.

Internally Threaded Lubrication-Free Ball Joint Rod Ends


Ball Joint Rod End

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.

Long-Life Ball Joint Rod Ends

Seals keep out dirt and an oil-embedded polyester 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.
