About Rod Ends

Super-Swivel Ball Joint Rod Ends


With at least 55° of ball swivel, these rod ends accommodate greater misalignment than any other externally threaded rod end we offer. They generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends. A PTFE liner allows smooth ball rotation and eliminates the need for lubrication.
Rod ends with an oversized shank have a shank that is one size larger than the ID to handle greater stress.
Zinc-plated steel rod ends provide more corrosion resistance than black-oxide steel.

Internally Threaded Super-Swivel Ball Joint Rod Ends


With at least 55° of ball swivel, these rod ends accommodate greater misalignment than any other internally threaded rod end we offer. They generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends and offer some corrosion resistance. A PTFE liner allows smooth ball rotation and eliminates the need for lubrication. All are zinc plated, so they resist corrosion for a short time before the finish is consumed and the steel is exposed.
