QA1 MHMR8T-1 MH Series 3-Piece Alloy Steel Male Rod End 8mm Bore M8x1.25 RH PTFE Lined

The QA1 MHMR8T-1 is a precision-engineered MH Series three-piece alloy/chromoly steel male rod end featuring a self-lubricating PTFE liner. Designed for demanding automotive and motorsport applications, this rod end delivers exceptional load capacity and smooth articulation with minimal maintenance requirements.

In QA1's three-piece construction, the precision ground ball is pressed into a sleeve that is swaged around it to form the insert. The outer diameter of the insert is then turned down and faced before being pressed into the rod end body, resulting in tighter tolerances and superior ball-to-race conformity compared to standard designs.
