Rotating for easy positioning before a load is applied, these minimize twisting and knotting of rope and chain.

These rotate for easy positioning before a load is applied to minimize twisting and knotting of rope and chain.

Adjust the position of a fitting or an object under load and minimize twisting and knotting.

Designed for angular lifting, hoist rings resist stresses that would bend or break an eyebolt. They have a lifting ring that pivots 180° front to back to compensate for roll and sway when lifting heavy or unbalanced loads.

Choose these hoist rings when you need to lift your load from the side.

Rotating for easy positioning before a load is applied, these have a latch to ensure that rope, chain, and fittings won't separate from the hook when the load slackens.

These rotate for easy positioning before a load is applied.

These rotate for easy positioning before a load is applied.

These hooks swivel under load. They have a latch locks closed when a load is applied for a more secure connection than standard hooks.

Unlike conventional eyebolts, you can rotate the eye 360° to match the angle of your load.

The swivel hook with latch installed on one end, prevents the wire rope from twisting. It is for use with winches.

Connect these fittings to air tools for pneumatic applications.

The industry standard for quick-disconnect couplings, these are also known as industrial interchange couplings. Compatible with Industrial-shape plugs and sockets.

Also known as live swivels, these fittings swivel continuously 360° before and after installation. This not only makes installation easier, but also eliminates the twisting and kinking that can cause hose failure. Fittings are threaded on both ends so you can connect them directly to a threaded hose or to pumps, cylinders, and other equipment in your hydraulic system. Use in high-pressure applications up to 5,000 psi.

These two-piece fittings screw directly onto the hose without the need for a separate adapter. When assembled, the fitting compresses against the hose, forming a strong seal. Also known as reusable fittings, they can be unscrewed from the hose end and used on a new hose. Use in high-pressure hydraulic applications up to 5,800 psi.

Joints are for one-way flow and are meant to be used in pairs—one joint serves as the supply line while the other serves as the return line.

These fittings are strong enough to handle extreme pressures, yet small enough to fit into cramped spaces.

For use in noncorrosive environments, these fittings have better strength than our low-pressure iron and steel pipe fittings.

Also known as JIC (Joint Industrial Council) fittings, these provide a tight metal-to-metal seal on steel tubing that is flared to 37°.

A single sleeve (ferrule) bites into tubing as you tighten the nut, creating a strong seal.

Also known as rod‐end bearings, ball joint rod ends have an eyelet and a ball that swivels to support angular misalignment.

A carbon fiber-reinforced insert or PTFE liner reduces wear, handles shock loads, and eliminates the need for lubrication.

Connect your grease gun to the fitting to lubricate. Internal threads mate with rod end bolts, threaded rods, and other components with male threads.

An oil-embedded bronze insert slowly releases lubricant throughout the life of these internally threaded rod ends.

An oil-embedded bronze insert slowly releases lubricant to the rod end. Connect your grease gun to the fitting to relubricate.

With at least 55° of ball swivel, these externally threaded rod ends accommodate greater misalignment than any other we offer.

Made to extremely tight tolerances, these externally threaded rod ends are for applications that require positioning accuracy, such as accelerators and other types of control linkages.

Made of cadmium-plated steel, these externally threaded rod ends generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends.

An innovative body design keeps the ball from being pushed out when supporting thrust loads.

These externally threaded steel rod ends handle loads that are at least 25% higher than other comparably sized rod ends.

Along with internal threads, these rod ends have a double row of precision ball bearings that allows high speeds and smooth operation.

Use these linkages to create inline pivoting connections. They have internal threads on one end and external threads on the other.

These linkages offer excellent wear resistance. They consist of internally threaded ball joint rod ends with a ball stud attached to simplify mounting.

A slippery PTFE liner reduces wear and eliminates the need for lubrication.

An oil-embedded bronze insert slowly releases lubricant throughout the life of the joint.

Along with excellent wear resistance, these linkages have a grease fitting for easy lubrication. An internally threaded rod end connects to threaded rods, studs, and other parts with male threads.

Use these bent linkages for light duty applications.

Also known as spherical bearings, swivel joints support angular misalignment. Press them into a hole or housing where a ball joint rod end won’t fit.

Specially designed lubrication channels and integral seals allow these joints to last up to three times longer than other swivel joints.

Good for general purpose applications where corrosion and high strength aren’t a concern, these rod end bolts are made of carbon steel.

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.

These black-oxide steel rod end bolts are heat treated for added strength.

With a rubber bushing, these bolts reduce noise and vibration—attach them to rods, pipes, tubes, and cable linkages that have male threading. They’re commonly known as isolated rod ends.

These steel rod ends are machined to SAE standards.

A male-threaded shank lets you build a linkage with a tapped tube or any female-threaded connection.

The sealed ball bearings will never need additional lubrication.

The sealed ball bearings will never need additional lubrication.

Attach to the end of a screw or threaded stud to apply uniform pressure on uneven and angled surfaces. Also known as toggle and swivel-foot pads.

Attach to the end of a screw or threaded stud—the serrated face swivels to grip uneven and angled surfaces. Also known as toggle and swivel-foot pads.

Pivot the head to access fasteners from an angle.

A wide tip provides more gripping power than standard swivel-tip set screws. To use, remove the tip, thread the screw through the hole, and attach the tip on the other side.

A low-profile flat-faced ball tip allows these metric set screw to be used in low-clearance applications.

A wide tip provides more gripping power than standard swivel-tip thumb screws. To use, remove the tip, thread the screw through the hole, and attach the tip on the other side.

A large swivel angle allows these thumb screws to make better contact with angled and uneven surfaces than nonremovable swivel-tip thumb screws.

Ball-and-socket connections allow 360° positioning.

Heavy duty construction adds strength for higher load capacities than other positioning arms.

Stronger and with greater load capacities than gooseneck-style positioning arms, these arms keep their shape even when moving or when exposed to vibration. They’re often used in robotics and conveyor applications when frequent repositioning isn’t required.

These U-joints are made of steel or zinc.

These U-joints are made of steel.

These U-joints handle at least 11,000 in.-lbs. of torque.

Stainless steel hubs allow these U-joints to handle harsh environments.

These joints are made of steel.

A set of gears transmit rotary motion at angles up to 136°—the widest angle of all our U-joints. They are for hand-powered, low-speed applications.

These pin-and-block style U-joints work at lower speeds but transmit greater torque than needle-bearing joints.

A black-oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance.

Mount these ringbolts into a threaded hole, or use the nut for through-hole mounting. The pivoting ring allows material to move freely.
