Product Details

The QA1 KML3TS is a K Series three-piece carbon steel male rod end featuring a self-lubricating PTFE (Teflon) liner and a left-hand threaded stud configuration. With a 3/16 in. (0.1875 in.) bore, this precision rod end is engineered for high-load steering and suspension applications where accuracy and durability are critical.

Key Features:

  • Three-piece construction — traditional design for high strength and reliability
  • 3/16 in. bore with left-hand thread stud configuration
  • PTFE (Teflon) liner — self-lubricating for reduced maintenance and smooth articulation
  • Ball: 52100 bearing steel, heat treated, precision ground, and hard chrome plated
  • Race/Inner Ring: Alloy steel, corrosion and wear resistant
  • Body: Carbon steel (alloy/chromoly steel at manufacturer's option), protective coated for corrosion resistance
  • Available in inch dimensions for precise fitment
  • ISO 9001 certified manufacturing for consistent quality

QA1's K Series rod ends are a trusted choice for performance street and race applications. The PTFE liner eliminates the need for grease fittings while providing consistent, low-friction operation under demanding conditions. The stud configuration simplifies installation in tight or specialized mounting locations.

very fast processing

Super Fast! Website was easy to user, multiple different payment options (Amazon, Paypal, Credit Card) Got a notification of shipment within 1 hour!

Great service, awesome prices, incredibly fast shipping. A++ I would absolutely suggest you to my friends and family

quick response and unbelievably CHEAP prices.

Excellent service, quick ship. An easy transaction.

Ordered a set of 5 steel wheels, distributor messed up and only sent me 4. 5th wheel is taking a good couple weeks to arrive due to the distributor messing up the shipment. Autoplicity did make things right and I can honestly say now I would recommend them.

- Updated review -<br>Autoplicity.com contacted me after my original review and admitted to making a mistake with my order. They have refunded my shipping and I am happy now.<br><br>- Original review -<br>After 18 days the part finally arrived. The filter appears to have been sent directly from K&N, but I ordered on the 20th of June, yet the packing date that K&N Engineering Inc. shows is July 3rd.
