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

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

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

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

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

Able to stand up to frequent use, these linkages offer excellent wear resistance. They consist of ball joint rod ends with a ball stud attached to simplify mounting.

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

Use these bent linkages for light duty applications.

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.
