If you're building a pneumatic and coupler mechanism, this steel rod end from the reliable RS PRO range offers a zero-maintenance option, as it requires no lubrication.

The ball swivel allows some degree of misalignment between the shafts you're connecting. It has a female M8 x 1.25 connection thread with a bore size of 8 millimetres. The component's overall length is 47 millimetres and it has a dynamic load rating of 14,30 newtons and a static load rating of 7,900 newtons.

Part of the RS PRO series, the product has been stringently tested by our engineers. It also meets Electrostatic Control Standards ANSI/ESD S20.20:2014 and BS EN 61340-5-1:2007. This type of rod end is especially suitable for loading in one direction. It's the best choice for control and link mechanisms in machines where oil must be avoided, for example food processing machines or machines that can't be re-lubricated.
