Find the right rod end type and thread direction to control motion, adjust tension, and handle misalignment.
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.
Oversized Shank—Rod ends with an oversized shank have a shank that is one size larger than the ID to handle greater stress.
Zinc-Plated Alloy Steel—Zinc-plated steel rod ends provide more corrosion resistance than black-oxide steel.
