    Made of steel, these rod ends generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends. They don’t come lubricated, so you’ll need to lubricate during installation and on an ongoing basis.
    Zinc-Plated Carbon Steel—Zinc-plated steel rod ends provide moderate corrosion resistance.

    With Cushion

    Keep equipment level on slightly sloped and pitted floors with mounts that have a ball-and-socket joint in the base. For mounting versatility, you can install them in either threaded holes or unthreaded through holes at the bottom of equipment.
    Nickel-Plated Steel Base—With a shiny appearance, these mounts create a finished look. They're best for dry environments since the nickel plating offers minimal corrosion resistance.
    Zinc-Yellow-Chromate-Plated Steel Base—More corrosion resistant than nickel-plated steel, these mounts are suitable for damp environments. However, they won’t hold up to chemical cleaners, high-pressure washdowns, and other harsh conditions like stainless steel can.
    Black-Oxide Steel Base—With a matte black appearance, these mounts create a finished look. They offer minimal corrosion resistance, so they're best for dry environments.
    303 Stainless Steel Base—The choice for most wet locations, these mounts can withstand repeated washdowns without corroding. However, they won't hold up to cleaning solutions that contain harsh chemicals like 316 stainless steel can.
    Rubber Cushion—A cushion under the base grips surfaces so vibrating equipment doesn't slide. It also protects floors from scrapes and gouges.

    Delrin® Acetal Base—These mounts are economical yet resistant to grease, oil, and chemicals that pool on the floor. Often used on small, lightweight machines, they have about 25% the capacity of similarly sized metal mounts.
    Rubber Cushion—A cushion under the base grips surfaces so vibrating equipment doesn't slide. It also protects floors from scrapes and gouges.

    A carbon fiber-reinforced insert or PTFE liner reduces wear, handles shock loads, and eliminates the need for lubrication. Made of steel, these rod ends generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends. All are zinc plated, so they resist corrosion for a short time before the finish is consumed and the steel is exposed.
