Product Overview: The PHS 10 Female Rod End Bearing
The PHS 10 is a high-performance rod end bearing, commonly known as a heim joint, featuring a 10mm bore diameter and an internally threaded female shank. This versatile component is engineered to provide a reliable and articulating connection point in a wide variety of mechanical systems. Part of our extensive Rod End Bearings collection, the PHS 10 is designed to accommodate misalignment, making it an essential part for linkages, control rods, and steering mechanisms where angular motion is required.
Constructed with a durable steel housing and a precision spherical ball, the PHS 10 ensures smooth pivoting action and long service life. Its Female Thread design allows for easy and secure attachment to threaded rods and shafts, simplifying assembly. For applications requiring an external male thread, consider its counterpart, the POS 10. As a leading supplier of industrial components, we guarantee that our rod end bearings meet stringent quality standards for reliable performance in demanding environments.
