High-Performance Rod End Bearings: Precision and Durability
Our rod end bearings, also known as Heim joints or rose joints, are mechanical articulating joints designed to provide smooth motion and reliable load transmission in diverse industrial applications. These compact units consist of a spherical internal ball and a housing with a threaded shank, offering a robust solution for compensating misalignment.
Key Features
-
Self-Lubricating Technology: Available with PTFE liners or maintenance-free coatings to reduce friction and eliminate the need for frequent regreasing.
-
