More Than a Supplier — Your Reliable Bearing Partner.
The SI-C series female rod end bearing features left-hand (LH) or right-hand (RH) internal threads for flexible installation in various linkage systems. This metric female rod end bearing consists of a precision rod end body and a self lubricating spherical plain bearing GE..UK or GE..ET 2RS. With a zinc-plated steel body and maintenance free design, the SI-C rod end bearing provides low friction, reliable performance and long service life. It is an ideal female spherical rod end bearing solution for automation equipment, hydraulic systems and industrial applications.
The SI-C series female rod end bearing is a high-precision metric female rod end bearing featuring internal threads and double-sealed protection. Available with left-hand (LH) or right-hand (RH) threads, the SI-C rod end bearing is designed for internal linkage systems requiring high accuracy, reliable sealing and stable motion performance.
The SI..ET 2RS rod end bearing adopts a precision spherical plain structure with a heat-treated bearing steel ball (HRC 58-62) and hard chrome-plated surface for enhanced wear resistance and durability. The outer ring is made of brass, while the medium carbon steel rod end body is zinc-plated for improved corrosion protection.
Featuring a self lubricating rod end bearing design with PTFE bushing, the SI-C Series delivers smooth operation without frequent lubrication. The 2RS double seal structure effectively prevents grease leakage and contamination, making it an ideal maintenance free rod end bearing solution for automation equipment, precision machinery, automotive components and other high-precision linkage applications.
