QA1 CML10-12TS C Series 2-Piece Carbon Steel Rod End 5/8in Bore 3/4-16 LH Male PTFE Stud

The QA1 CML10-12TS is a C Series two-piece carbon steel spherical rod end featuring a 5/8 in. bore, 3/4 in.-16 left-hand male thread, a self-lubricating PTFE liner, and a stud-style shank configuration. Designed for performance steering and suspension linkage applications, this rod end delivers reliable articulation and load capacity in a compact, economical package.

The carbon steel body is protective-coated for corrosion resistance, while the precision-ground 52100 bearing steel ball is heat-treated and hard chrome plated for long service life. The integrated PTFE liner provides self-lubrication, reducing maintenance requirements compared to standard metal-to-metal rod ends. The stud shank allows for easy installation into standard mounting brackets and control arms without additional hardware.
