Call us. We are now stocking blank rod ends. The blank can be made into either a male or female rod end, left or right and with a different pitch. Check More>>

A threaded housing with a mounted bearing, specifically designed to handle defined misalignments in a linkage. A linkage is used to transmit forces over distance. Check More>>

The axial load is applied through the axis of the ball bore. Check More>>

The maximum axial static load capacity is recommended to be 15% of the ultimate radial static load capacity. For three-piece rod ends, the maximum axial static load capacity is recommended to be 10% of the ultimate radial static load capacity. Check More>>

The maximum axial static load capacity on Aurora spherical bearings is recommended at 20% of the radial static load. Extreme care should be used on selecting a sufficiently strong housing to accept this type of bearing. Check More>>

The radial load is applied through the axis of the shank of the male or female body. Check More>>

You should assume that there is no safety factor. The bearing will fail at the advertised load. Check More>>

The measurement of the total range of movement of the ball inside the insert/body in the axial direction or the clearance measured along the axis of the ball bore. Check More>>

The measurement of the total range of movement of the ball inside the insert/body in the radial direction or the clearance measured along the axis of the shank of the male or female body. Check More>>

For metal-to-metal rod ends and spherical bearings, a thin layer of grease applied occasionally to ball outside diameter will assist in extending the life of these products. Rod ends and spherical bearings that are Teflon lined are self-lubrication. Check More>>

The minimum thread engagement is 1.5 times the major thread diameter unless otherwise stated. Check More>>

Teflon liner is between .012"-.016" thick depending on which liner is chosen. Check More>>

When a rod end or spherical bearing is to be applied in full rotation, the surface speed of the ball should be kept below 20 feet per minute or the rotational speed should be below 100 RPM, whichever is lower, with the operating loads not to... Check More>>

Commercial grade liner = -65°F to +250°F

Military specification liner = -65°F to +325°F

All zinc plated rod ends are plated to meet or exceed the requirements of ASTM B 633. Check More>>

Yes, SYZ Machine has the ability to manufacture many types of specialty bearings not listed in the catalog. Please contact our Sales Representative for more information. Check More>>

All PTFE lined products are self-lubricating and maintenance free. SYZ Standard fit is F2, If you have special request, please contact our sales. These fits are available on PTFE lined product only. Check More>>
