SQ RS Ball Joint – Sealed Rod-End Joint, Metric Thread

SQ RS Ball Joint is a documented maintenance required series for industrial linkage or pivot applications. Compact angled ball-joint housing; metric left- or right-hand threads. Use the main image for identification and the full product description for model-by-model dimensions and load data.

MOQ: 50 pcs. Minimum order value USD 1,500; mixed orders and trial quantities welcome.

SQ RS packages a sealed ball joint into an angled rod-end form. It is a compact way to transfer motion where the linkage needs articulation but the classic circular rod-end eye would be inconvenient. Thread sizes in the supplied table run from M5×0.8 to M22×1.5.

Typical Applications

Throttle and valve linkages

Compact machine controls

Steering and positioning mechanisms

Selection Guide

Check the drawing orientation before comparing models. The same thread size can appear in more than one pitch, and the center dimensions influence how the mechanism travels.

Installation & Maintenance

The rubber dust seal is the joint’s first defense against contamination. Keep it clear of sharp edges and heat sources.

FAQ

Metric left- or right-hand threads — what changes selection?
Load rating is a screening value; the real design also needs room for the ball to move without the seal or housing touching a bracket.
Zinc-base-alloy housing — what should installers watch?
During assembly, align the linkage so the ball is not held at its articulation limit in the neutral position; reserve some angular travel for real machine motion.
Steering and positioning mechanisms — suitable duty?
Steering and positioning mechanisms is a screening application for the SQ series; final size follows the model table and actual joint duty.
