QA1 PCYFL8T Chromoly Rod End 1/2 Inch Bore PTFE Lined Female

The QA1 PCYFL8T is a high-performance chromoly steel female rod end designed for demanding suspension and linkage applications. This 2-piece economy-style rod end features a heat-treated chromoly body with a PTFE liner for self-lubrication and reduced maintenance. The design offers exceptional misalignment capability, making it ideal for applications where high articulation is required.

Key Features:

• 1/2 inch bore with 1/2-20 left-hand female thread
• PTFE liner provides self-lubrication and extended service life
• High misalignment capability for extreme articulation requirements
• 52100 bearing steel ball that is heat treated, hard chrome plated, and precision ground
• Chromoly steel body that is heat treated for superior strength
• Black oxide coating for corrosion resistance
• 2-piece swaged construction for economical performance

Construction Details:

The PCYFL8T utilizes QA1's proven 2-piece design where the body is swaged around the precision ball on each side to lock it in place, then loosened to allow proper articulation. This construction method provides excellent value while maintaining the quality standards QA1 is known for. The PTFE liner eliminates the need for grease fittings and provides smooth, consistent operation throughout the rod end's service life.

This rod end is engineered for light to medium-duty applications where high misalignment angles and reliable performance are critical. The chromoly construction offers superior load ratings compared to carbon steel alternatives, while the black oxide finish provides corrosion protection for long-lasting durability.
