About Rod Ends

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