For the builder who needs the best product at a great value, these rod ends from Ruff Stuff Specialties are the best way to add strength, reliability, and flexibility to any situation that requires use of a rod end, such as suspension or steering applications.
The XM series utilizes a high strength 4130 Chromalloy body that is heat and cryogenically treated, with a polished chrome finish.
The ball is made from heat treated bearing steel for strength and is hard chrome polished for a smooth surface.
The race is injection molded nylon that is Teflon impregnated, which keeps the joint quiet and tight for years of usability.
Cryogenically treating a rod end increases the strength of the heat treated steel body, making this 1.25 inch rod end one of the strongest available on the market.
Additionally, it significantly increases the density and smoothness of the nylon/Teflon injection molded race, drastically increasing the lifespan of the plastics.
