These rod ends and spherical bushings are ideal for linkage applications where a bearing must accommodate severe misalignment. Available with self-lubricating or metal-to metal-inserts, spherical bushings can accommodate heavy radial loads and bi-directional loads simultaneously.
The 52100 steel balls in the COM/COMH series are chrome plated for increased hardness, wear, and corrosion resistance, while providing a decreased coefficient of friction. They are also heat treated for additional wear resistance.
The race is constructed of low-carbon steel and is oil-coated for to protect it from corrosion.
PTFE liners are also available for additional lubrication, offered in both inch and metric ...
Ideal for construction and material handling industries, both the 52100 steel ball and alloy steel races in the FKS/FKST series are heat treated for additional wear resistance. The ball is chrome plated for increased hardness, wear, and corrosion resistance, as well as decreased coefficient of friction.
PTFE liners are also available for additional lubrication.
Best suited for high-load or misalignment applications, these plain spherical bushings with a single fractured race can accommodate bi-directional axial and heavy radial loads simultaneously. The alloy steel ball and races are coated in phosphate for reduced friction and increased corrosion resistance, and are also heat treated for additional wear resistance. Lubricating holes and grooves are located on inner and outer races.
Available Dimensions:
Configuration: Seals on both sides are available, as well as open seals.
