NOS Series Male Rod End Bearing - Self-Lubricating - Metric

This metric spherical rod end features left-hand (LH) or right-hand (RH) external threads for easy installation. A high-performance PTFE composite layer is securely bonded to the outer ring spherical surface, delivering stable self-lubrication for long service life. As a trusted NOS rod end bearings supplier, we provide zinc-plated bearing spherical rod end with excellent corrosion resistance and reliable performance for industrial automation, hydraulic cylinders and heavy machinery applications.

NOS Series Male Rod End Bearing Description

The NOS series male rod end bearing is a high-precision maintenance free rod end bearing featuring an extruded rod end body and external thread design. Manufactured through advanced cold extrusion technology, the NOS rod end bearing offers higher strength, improved dimensional accuracy and a more compact structure compared with traditional machined designs.

The NOS metric rod end bearing adopts a steel/PTFE composite sliding pair with a medium carbon steel body, environmentally friendly zinc plating and a heat-treated bearing steel ball with hard chrome plating. This self lubricating rod end bearing eliminates grease lubrication requirements, reducing maintenance costs while ensuring smooth and reliable operation.

Available with left-hand or right-hand external threads, the male spherical rod end bearing provides precise connection and stable motion control for automated equipment, mechanical linkages and precision transmission systems. As a durable male rod end bearing, the NOS Series is ideal for light-to-medium load applications requiring high accuracy, compact design and long-term maintenance-free performance.
