Description:Cat® spherical rod ends are manufactured for long service life, minimal maintenance, and high operational reliability. Spherical rod ends provide a mechanical articulating joint that accommodates oscillation during slow rotation. These joints also accommodate misalignment between the rod end and the attached shaft. Spherical rod ends consist of an eye-shaped head with an integral shank that forms the housing for a spherical bearing. Bearings reduce friction and provide protection between mating parts. They are specifically designed for low to medium speed, high load applications with little to medium side thrust.Attributes:• Size 5• Body Pivot Length: 35 mm (1.377 in)• Body Thread Size: 5/16-24• Stud Pivot Length: 31.2 mm (1.228 in)• Stud Thread Size: 5/16-24• Pivot Angle: 40°• Material: Steel• Large load capacity• Easy mounting and dismounting• Suitable for heavy static or alternate loads, and shock loads.Application:Cat spherical rod ends are typically used in rod and linkage assemblies and control groups where strength and flexibility are crucial.
