Rod End Bearing

A rod end bearing built around a spherical ball swivel pressed into a threaded housing — the kind of articulating joint used at the ends of control rods, steering links, and tie rods where the

A rod end bearing — spherical sliding bearing on one end, threaded rod on the other — that lets a linkage oscillate and rotate within an angular range while still transmitting force and torque along

A rod end bearing built around a spherical ball swivel with a bronze liner — available in zinc-coated steel or stainless steel depending on the corrosion resistance your application needs.

Also called a universal ball joint, this rod-end bearing pairs a ball head with a threaded housing and a sliding layer — the ball head oscillates within an angular range while the sliding layer

A female threaded spherical rod end with a 16 mm bore and M16 right hand thread, designed for articulated linkages that require controlled angular movement.

A carbon steel spherical plain rod end designed to connect mechanical linkages that require controlled oscillating or tilting movement.

This page covers four rod-end bearing families for mechanical linkages. SI and PHS have female threads, while SA and POS use male threaded shanks.

A male-threaded POS rod end with a spherical sliding joint for connecting control rods, actuators and mechanical linkages that require angular movement.

A rod end bearing designed for mechanical linkages that require smooth pivoting movement and controlled angular misalignment.

A carbon-steel SA rod end with an external threaded shank for linkage connections that require oscillating or angular movement.

A POS series spherical rod end with an external threaded shank and lubrication provision for low-speed oscillating linkages.

A self-lubricating spherical plain bearing built for low-speed oscillating, tilting, and rotating motion — an inner ring with a spherical outer surface sits inside a matching outer ring, held
