QA1 Precision Products MHFR16-1 H Series 3-Piece Female Rod End 16mm Bore M16x2.0 RH

The QA1 MHFR16-1 is a precision-engineered 3-piece female rod end from QA1's H Series metric line, designed for demanding automotive applications requiring metric threads. This rod end features a traditional three-piece chromoly steel construction that delivers exceptional strength and reliability for suspension linkages, control arms, and custom fabrication projects.

Three-Piece Precision Construction:

The MHFR16-1 utilizes QA1's proven 3-piece design where the ball is pressed into a sleeve and swaged around the ball to form the insert assembly. The outer diameter of the insert is then precision-turned and faced to create tight tolerances for superior performance. This construction method provides higher ball-to-race conformity compared to 2-piece designs, making it ideal for precision applications where tight tolerances are critical.
