The BRRODM-CM3 is a right-hand threaded, two-piece commercial male rod end with a 0.1900 in. bore diameter, designed for metal-to-metal articulating connections. It has a thread size of #10-32, a ball diameter of 0.437 in., and a static radial load rating of 1210 lbs. The part measures 0.234 in. in length, 0.625 in. in housing width, 1.250 in. in height, and 0.750 in. in distance from ball center to thread end. The ball body is made of 52100 steel with a minimum Rockwell C hardness of 56 and is hard chrome plated. The housing is low-carbon steel with zinc plating. A grease fitting is not supplied with this size, and the part is not equipped with a self-lubricating liner.
A bearing is a device that reduces friction between moving components by preventing metal-to-metal contact while assisting components (shafts, axles, and wheels) to freely rotate around a fixed axis, cutting down on heat generation and the amount of energy that is consumed. By replacing sliding motion with low-friction rolling motion, the life of the rotating components is increased. A bearing also keeps the shaft in the proper position, providing support and alignment and transferring the axial or radial loads to the housing.
The types of bearings that we offer include rolling element bearings, which consist of both ball bearings and roller bearings.
Balls are utilized as the rolling element in ball bearings; a retainer holds the balls in place and allows them to freely rotate. The balls are kept inside channels cut in both the inner and outer races. Because there is no surface contact between the balls and races, precision ball bearings have a lower load capacity for their size than other bearings.
