SA T/K puts the maintenance-free joint on a male threaded shank. That makes it easy to screw directly into a clevis, tube end or adjustable linkage without a separate threaded stud. The catalogue lists bores from 5 to 50 mm and pairs the steel/PTFE sliding interface with a zinc-plated body; the spherical inner-ring surface is chromium plated.

Typical Applications
Selection Guide
Choose the shank thread from the mating component first, then use bore d to match the pin. The load table is useful for screening, but the final joint also has to tolerate the actual oscillation angle and any side loading created by imperfect brackets.
Installation & Maintenance
This series is intended to run without periodic relubrication.
