Product Details

The QA1 HMR4-5TS is a high-misalignment, Teflon-lined rod end (also known as a heim joint or spherical rod end bearing) engineered for demanding steering, suspension, and chassis linkage applications. Constructed from heat-treated alloy steel, this three-piece design features a 1/4" bore and a 5/16-24 right-hand male thread shank, making it a direct-fit solution for performance steering tie rod assemblies and custom fabrication.

The PTFE (Teflon) liner on the inner race eliminates the need for grease lubrication while reducing friction, noise, and wear over the service life of the joint. QA1's high-misalignment ball design offers greater angular articulation than standard rod ends, accommodating chassis flex and extreme suspension travel without binding.

Key Features:

  • Bore Size: 1/4" (0.250")
  • Thread Size: 5/16-24 RH Male
  • Construction: 3-piece heat-treated alloy steel housing
  • Liner: PTFE (Teflon) — self-lubricating, maintenance-free
  • Design: High-misalignment spherical ball for maximum articulation
  • Thread Direction: Right-hand
  • Style: Stud type with male shank

QA1 rod ends are manufactured to tight tolerances and are a trusted choice for racing, hot rod, custom steering systems, and performance suspension builds. The HMR4-5TS is sold individually.

After reading several negative reviews, I was suspicious of the low price offered by Autoplicity but decided to try them out anyway. Much to my surprise, the belt for my car shipped immediately and arrived 2 days later via ground shipping from half way across the country. I was very pleasantly surprised with the speed of service and got my parts for the lowest price on the internet. A+!
