Overview

PM PF Molded-Race Carbon Steel Rod Ends Product Overview

PFR10 / PFL10 features a 0.6250″ bore (B) and 1.500″ body diameter (D), with a 1.125″ precision-ground 52100 steel ball running in an injection-molded nylon race. Overall body length (AF) is 2.500″, thread engagement (CF) measures 1.500″. Width (W) is 0.750″ and body thickness (T) is 0.562″. Approximate weight: 0.480 lbs.

Rated at 7,400 lb static radial load with ±16° misalignment angle, this female rod end with a 5/8-18 UNF 3A internal thread suits heavy-duty suspension, off-road steering, and high-load industrial linkages. The injection-molded nylon race is self-lubricating by design — no grease fittings or maintenance schedule required, making this rod end ideal for sealed or hard-to-service installations.

Available in right-hand (PFR10) and left-hand (PFL10) thread configurations. Stud configuration available (add suffix S, e.g. PFR10-S). Silver zinc plating available on request for enhanced corrosion protection. Body is carbon steel, heat treated and yellow zinc plated; ball is 52100 bearing steel, hard chrome plated.

Applications

Where PM PF Molded-Race Carbon Steel Rod Ends Rod Ends Are Used

Steering, Suspension & Chassis Linkages

Carbon-steel rod ends provide an adjustable articulated connection for control arms, tie rods, sway-bar links, and other force-transmitting members. Check radial load, angular travel, thread engagement, and race design before use.

Actuator and Control Linkages

The threaded male or female format can connect rods, brackets, hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders, and compact actuator mechanisms. Match thread direction, bore size, and mounting geometry to the complete linkage.

Motorsport, Agricultural & Industrial Fabrication

These rod ends are used in serviceable vehicle and machine linkages where alignment changes during travel. Aluminum favors low weight, while steel variants suit higher-duty assemblies; final selection should follow the actual load, motion, and environment.

General Mechanical Assemblies

Useful in general mechanical linkages where a molded race, plated carbon steel body, and compact rod end profile are more appropriate than heavier-duty series.

Precision Equipment

A good fit for lighter precision mechanisms where clean articulation, compact sizing, and repeatable movement are more important than extreme load capacity.

Custom OEM Linkage Builds

Suitable for OEM linkage assemblies that need economical self-lubricating rod ends with optional studded versions or alternate silver zinc finish.
