QA1 Precision Products Rod End Bore Hand Thread PTFE Lined

QA1 Precision Products PTFE lined rod ends, also called heim joints or rod end bearings, are made for suspension links, control arms, steering linkages and other precision linkage uses. Each rod end has a self-lubricating PTFE liner. The liner gives smooth, low-friction articulation, and it reduces the need for regular greasing.

Key Features:

• Self-lubricating PTFE liner for smooth operation and less maintenance
• Heat-treated 52100 bearing steel ball, precision ground and hard chrome plated, in the chromoly, carbon and stainless lines
• Multiple body materials across the line: alloy/chromoly steel, carbon steel and 300 series stainless steel, so you can match strength, value and corrosion resistance to the job
• Several body styles: loader slot designs and traditional two-piece and three-piece designs
• Male and female thread options in right-hand and left-hand directions
• Inch and metric versions in a range of bore and thread sizes
• Studded configurations available on many models
• Corrosion-resistant finishes: protective coatings on the carbon and alloy bodies, or stainless construction

QA1 engineers performance suspension components for muscle cars, classic trucks and race cars. Loader slot versions have a reinforced nylon race with PTFE. It gives metal-to-metal support under heavy shock loads and smooth motion under light loads, and it helps keep dirt and debris out. Choose the bore, thread size, thread direction and male or female configuration that match your application.
