QA1 Precision Products High-Misalignment Chromoly Rod End

QA1 Precision Products High-Misalignment Chromoly Rod Ends (also called heim joints or spherical rod ends) are two-piece rod ends for applications where extreme misalignment can occur. They suit 4-link bars, control arms, panhard bars, pull bars, and custom suspension and linkage builds. QA1 says this design offers the highest misalignment available in the industry.

Key Features:

• Chromoly steel body: The body is heat-treated alloy/chromoly steel. QA1 states this gives higher load ratings than carbon steel two-piece rod ends.
• Hardened ball: The ball is 52100 bearing steel. It is heat-treated, precision ground and hard chrome plated.
• PTFE-lined: A self-lubricating PTFE liner gives smooth articulation. It also reduces the need for routine greasing.
• Corrosion-resistant coating: The body has a protective coating to help resist corrosion.
• High misalignment design: The design allows a much larger range of angular movement than standard rod ends.
• Range of configurations: The line comes in multiple male and female thread configurations, with right- and left-hand threads.
