    Clevis Rod End

    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.

    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.
