About Rod Ends

Ball Joint Rod Ends
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 steel rod ends provide moderate corrosion resistance.

Lubrication-Free Ball Joint Rod Ends
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.

Internally Threaded Ball Joint Rod Ends with Grease Fitting
Connect your grease gun to the fitting to lubricate. These rod ends don’t come lubricated, so you'll need to lubricate during installation and on an ongoing basis. Made of steel, they generally handle higher loads than stainless steel, aluminum, and nylon rod ends.

Clevis Rod Ends for Hydraulic Cylinders
Connect a clevis rod end to a hydraulic cylinder to create a bend or pivot. Use these with pivot brackets and clevis pins (each component sold separately). They’re also known as yoke-end linkages.
Stainless steel clevis rod ends are more corrosion resistant than steel clevis rod ends in wet environments.
