Aurora Male Spherical Rod End Bearing Bore Thread

Aurora Bearing male spherical rod end bearings, also called heim joints or male rod ends, give you a threaded, pivoting link for suspension, steering and linkage work. Each one has an externally threaded shank and a spherical ball that sits in the housing eye. The ball lets the joint swing and misalign while it transfers load. They are a common choice for race car suspension, tie rods, control arms and custom linkages.

Key Features:

• Male threaded shank for threading into tube ends, weld-in bungs or linkage components
• Spherical ball design that allows angular misalignment
• Hard chrome-plated, heat-treated alloy steel balls in the Aurora lines
• Body and race materials vary by series. Options include protective-coated carbon or alloy steel and 4130 chromoly
• Self-lubricating options, including PTFE-lined and molded-race designs, are available in selected series
• Right-hand and left-hand thread configurations are available across the line
• Economy, precision and high-strength series cover everything from general-purpose use to demanding motorsport use
