NMB Minebea ART8E(R) Male Rod End Bearing – 1/2" Bore, 1/2" UNF Right Hand, PTFE Lined, Stainless Steel – Formula Car Suspension Links

The NMB Minebea ART8E(R) is a three-piece stainless steel male rod end with a 1/2" bore and 1/2"-20 UNF right hand thread. The body is heat-treated 17-4 PH stainless steel, running a heat-treated CRES 410 stainless race against a heat-treated CRES 440C stainless ball. The maintenance-free PTFE fabric liner is bonded directly to the race inner diameter rather than pressed in, so it holds zero play without greasing and will not migrate under load. Static radial capacity is 86,736 N, with 9 degrees of misalignment available. The largest bore in the ART range, for the most heavily loaded suspension components and linkages on Formula race cars. Supplied as a single rod end with lock nut.
