Rod-End Misalignment and Clearance
Spacers position a rod end between mounting tabs while adding clearance around the spherical ball and fastener. Select the spacer width, bore, and shoulder geometry to preserve the required angular travel.

What Is ROD END SPACERS SCNS / CNS?
ROD END SPACERS SCNS / CNS are precision spacers used between rod ends, spherical joints, mounting tabs, and fasteners to establish the required width, clearance, and misalignment space. They help position the spherical joint inside a bracket stack without changing the rod-end body. Select spacer bore, width, shoulder geometry, material, surface treatment, and fastener grip so the assembly remains aligned and free to articulate through its working travel.
Typical Applications
Applications for ROD END SPACERS SCNS / CNS
Suspension and Chassis Mounting
Spacer hardware is commonly used in control-arm, sway-bar, radius-rod, and fabricated chassis assemblies. Confirm stack height, bolt grip, bracket parallelism, and the load path through the mount.
Custom Linkage Packaging
Different spacer heights help resolve bracket offset and packaging constraints without changing the rod end itself. Use compatible materials and surface protection where moisture, fretting, or galvanic contact is a concern.
Fabricated Linkage Assemblies
Supports custom linkage assemblies where spacer profile and width affect bracket clearance and motion range.
Corrosion-Sensitive Installations
SCNS stainless versions are useful where corrosion resistance is preferred in harsh outdoor or washdown environments.
General Industrial Cone Spacer Hardware
CNS plated carbon steel versions support general industrial joint hardware and fabricated rod end assemblies.
Product FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What are SCNS and CNS cone spacers used for?
They are used with rod ends and spherical bearings to control installed width and increase articulation through cone spacer geometry.
What is the difference between SCNS and CNS material options?
SCNS uses stainless steel, while CNS uses zinc plated carbon steel for a more standard plated hardware option.
Why are B and C the first dimensions to compare?
B and C are the primary fitment dimensions used to match the spacer to the joint package and mounting hardware.
What do A, D, E, and Q angle affect?
Those dimensions define cone profile, installed geometry, and the resulting articulation or clearance in the finished assembly.
Can these spacers be used with spherical bearings as well as rod ends?
Yes. These cone spacers are commonly used with both rod ends and spherical bearings where articulation and stack-up need adjustment.
Can SYZ support custom spacer dimensions or material requests?
Yes. SYZ can review custom dimensions, alternate materials, and application-specific spacer requirements for OEM programs.
