Overview
ROD END SPACERS SCW / CW Product Overview
SCW-6-1 / CW-6-1 is a 3/8″ nominal rod end spacer. Outer flange OD (A) = 0.651″, bore (B) = 0.376″, spacer body OD (C) = 0.515″, flange thickness (D) = 0.186″.
SCW (stainless steel) and CW (zinc plated carbon steel) rod end spacers are used to fill the gap between the rod end body and a clevis or bracket, centering the rod end in the mounting slot and preventing side loading. Install one spacer on each side of the rod end inside the clevis fork. Available in various widths to match different clevis slot depths and rod end body widths.
Stainless: SCW-6-1. Carbon steel (zinc plated): CW-6-1. Cone spacers for tapered pin assemblies: SCNS/CNS series. High-misalignment spacers: SG/HMS series.

FAQ
ROD END SPACERS SCW / CW Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SCW-6-1 / CW-6-1 rod end spacer used for?
The SCW-6-1 / CW-6-1 is a 3/8" nominal rod end spacer used to fill the gap between a rod end body and a clevis or bracket, centering the rod end in the mounting slot and preventing side loading. One spacer is installed on each side of the rod end inside the clevis fork.
What are the dimensions of the SCW-6-1 / CW-6-1?
Outer flange OD (A) is 0.651", bore (B) is 0.376", spacer body OD (C) is 0.515", and flange thickness (D) is 0.186", for a 3/8" nominal size.
What is the difference between SCW-6-1 and CW-6-1?
SCW-6-1 is the stainless steel version and CW-6-1 is the zinc-plated carbon steel version of the same 3/8" nominal spacer — same dimensions, different material and finish, so the choice comes down to corrosion resistance versus cost.
How do I install the SCW-6-1 / CW-6-1 correctly?
Install one spacer on each side of the rod end inside the clevis fork so the 0.376" bore centers over the rod end's bore and the 0.651" flange OD seats against the clevis fork face — this keeps the rod end centered in the mounting slot and stops it from side-loading against the clevis.
Are there other spacer types besides the SCW-6-1 / CW-6-1?
Yes. Beyond the standard SCW-6-1 / CW-6-1 flanged spacer, SYZ also offers cone spacers for tapered pin assemblies (SCNS/CNS series) and high-misalignment spacers (SG/HMS series) — pick the family that matches your pin/clevis geometry.
Can SYZ supply the SCW-6-1 / CW-6-1 in a different width?
Yes. The SCW-6-1 / CW-6-1 is available in various widths to match different clevis slot depths and rod end body widths — confirm your required flange thickness (D) and bore (B) against your clevis fork dimensions when requesting a quote.
