SDTZ Studded Rod End Ball Joint, Female Thread M5 x 0.8
Available
This is the SDTZ Studded Rod End Ball Joint, Metric Female Thread, Right-Hand, M5 to M12.
The SDTZ studded rod end is a ball joint with a threaded ball stud and a female-threaded housing. The ball tilts up to 40° in the housing, so the rod end takes up misalignment at the pivot point of a linkage. This one has right-hand metric threads, from M5 to M12.
The rod end is sealed with a rubber seal and is lubricated for life, with zinc alloy and steel contact surfaces.

Fitting and use
Match the thread size, pitch and hand of the rod end to the mating part before fitting. Keep the ball free to tilt through its 40° range.
The rod end is sealed and lubricated for life, so it needs no re-greasing in service.
Choosing the right option
Choose the thread size and pitch to match the mating part. M10 and M12 each come in a coarse and a fine pitch: BL10BD is M10 x 1.5 and BL10D is M10 x 1.25, and BL12BD is M12 x 1.75 and BL12D is M12 x 1.25.
Check the static load rating against the working load of the linkage.
