Product Details

The QA1 KMR16T is a precision-engineered 3-piece carbon steel male rod end from the KM-T Series, featuring a PTFE liner for enhanced performance and reduced maintenance. This rod end utilizes QA1's advanced 3-piece construction where the ball is pressed into a sleeve, swaged, and then machined into an insert for superior ball-to-race conformity and tighter tolerances.

Key Features:

  • PTFE-lined race for self-lubricating operation and extended service life
  • Precision-ground 52100 bearing steel ball, heat treated and hard chrome plated
  • Alloy steel race with corrosion and wear resistant properties
  • Carbon steel body with protective coating for corrosion resistance
  • 3-piece construction for tighter tolerances and better ball conformity
  • Male thread configuration with right-hand threads
  • Inch dimensional sizing

Component Construction:

  • Ball: 52100 bearing steel, heat treated, hard chrome plated, and precision ground for durability
  • Race: Alloy steel with PTFE lining for reduced friction and maintenance-free operation
  • Body: Carbon steel construction with protective anti-corrosion coating

The KMR16T is ideal for suspension applications requiring precision articulation with minimal friction. The PTFE liner eliminates the need for grease fittings in most applications while providing excellent wear resistance and smooth operation under load. This rod end is designed for professional racing, off-road vehicles, and high-performance street applications where precision and reliability are critical.

I am extremely satisfied with Autoplicity in terms of service, price, and shipping. I was shopping for a set of N-FAB step bars for my truck and was ready to purchase from Amazon when I decided to look around to see if there were better prices. I stumbled upon Autoplicity and was surprised to see their price on the bars. I checked with their online chat customer service to confirm that they would fit my truck and that the price was for a pair of the bars and not just one. (That's how low the price was!). I then placed my order and the bars arrived at my doorstep 3 days later! Autoplicity gets an A+ in my book and I'll definitely be coming back.
