Product Overview: The POS 25 Male Rod End Bearing
The POS 25 is a high-performance, male-threaded rod end bearing, featuring a 25mm bore diameter. As a key component in our Rod End Bearings collection, it is designed to connect shafts, rods, and other mechanical parts, creating a precise and articulating linkage. This bearing, also known as a heim joint, consists of a spherical ball housed within a body with an integral male thread, making it ideal for applications requiring misalignment compensation and oscillating movements.
Engineered for reliability and durability, the POS 25 is essential for creating robust mechanical linkages. Its primary function is to handle radial or thrust loads while allowing for angular rotation. The male thread design simplifies installation, providing a strong and direct connection point.
