Rod Ends - Maintenance Free

Maintenance-free rod ends consist of the bearing and housing with a threaded shank and have sliding layers made of modern materials. These include ELGOGLIDE or PTFE composite materials. They ensure low friction when in use. Rod ends are mainly used where maintenance-free operation is very important to the service life. They are mostly used for bearings that have to deal with loads acting on one side and where there are slow movements with small to medium swivel angles. Rod ends are therefore often used in technical systems and in hydraulics. Mostly you will find rod ends with internal or external threads, left and right turning and maintenance-free.
