QA1 Precision Products XFR10S XF Endura Series Female Stud is a loaded slot style of rod end introduced in the U.S.
by QA1 in 1995.
The body is machined with a significant groove that goes all the way around the interior of the body.
The ball is inserted into the machined slot, and a PTFE/Nylon material is injected.
This serves as a liner to keep dirt and debris out while also lubricating the rod end.
In addition to adding strength, the injection molded race also won't pound out like traditional PTFE liners, increasing the longevity of your rod ends.
This is simply the best rod end design for most motorsports applications.
QA1’s AF Aluminum Series rod ends are female endura rod ends designed specifically for performance applications where weight is a concern.
With a Nylon/PTFE injection molded race, these rod ends are completely self-sealing and self-lubricating, keeping dirt and debris out.
They are over 10% lighter than traditional three-piece aluminum rod ends and are the most wear-resistant aluminum design available.
For the ultimate in performance rod ends, look no further than QA1's XM Chromoly Steel Series male rod ends.
