QA1 MHFR8TS MH Series 3-Piece Alloy Rod End 8mm Female Right-Hand Thread with Stud

The QA1 MHFR8TS is an MHF Series metric female rod end built in a traditional three-piece alloy/chromoly steel construction with an integrated stud configuration. Designed for precision-critical applications, this rod end delivers tighter tolerances and reliable performance in demanding automotive, racing, and performance linkage environments.

In the three-piece design, the ball is pressed into a sleeve that is swaged around the ball to form the insert. The outer diameter of the insert is then precision-turned and faced before being pressed into the body, resulting in a higher ball-to-race conformity and exceptionally tight tolerances. The pre-attached stud provides higher misalignment capability compared to standard bolt-mounted applications.

Key Features:

• Construction: Traditional three-piece alloy/chromoly steel design
• Thread: M8 x 1.25 right-hand female thread
• Bore Size: 8mm
• Ball Material: 52100 bearing steel — heat treated, hard chrome plated, and precision ground
• Race Material: Chromoly heat-treated steel with corrosion and wear-resistant finish
• Body Material: Chromoly steel, heat treated with protective coating for corrosion resistance
• Stud Configuration: Pre-attached stud with right-hand threads for easy connection
• Higher Misalignment: Stud mount allows greater misalignment than typical bolt-mounted rod ends
• Heat Treated: Full heat treatment for increased strength and durability

The QA1 MHFR8TS metric rod end is ideal for precision suspension, steering, and linkage applications where tight tolerances and high-load performance are essential. Available with right- or left-hand thread options across the MHF Series lineup.
