Product Details

The QA1 KML7-8TS is a precision-engineered, 3-piece male rod end featuring a left-hand thread configuration. Built for high-performance steering and suspension applications, this rod end is designed to deliver smooth articulation, durability, and reliable handling characteristics on the street or track.

Constructed with a carbon steel housing and a Teflon-lined race, this rod end offers excellent wear resistance and reduced friction without the need for grease fittings, making it a low-maintenance solution for demanding environments. The 3-piece design allows for controlled preload and consistent performance over time.

Key Features:

  • Ball Bore: 7/16" (0.4375")
  • Stud/Shank Thread: 1/2"-20 (left-hand thread)
  • 3-Piece Construction: Carbon steel housing with precision-ground ball
  • Teflon-Lined Race: Self-lubricating for maintenance-free operation
  • Male Rod End configuration for direct tie rod or linkage installation
  • Left-hand thread allows for adjustment of suspension and steering components without disassembly
  • High misalignment capability for articulating suspension and steering linkages

QA1 rod ends are manufactured to exacting tolerances and are a trusted choice for racing teams, custom builders, and performance enthusiasts who demand precision steering and suspension components. The KML7-8TS is ideal for custom tie rod assemblies, panhard bars, and other adjustable linkage applications.
