Gibraltar 832SF6060-G Rod End 5/8-11 Male Thread 304 Stainless

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 832SF6060-G is a male-threaded rod end with an eye hole head, manufactured from grade 304 stainless steel in an uncoated finish. This hardware component connects rotating or sliding linkages to control rods, tie rods, and actuator arms in mechanical, HVAC, and industrial assembly applications. The 5/8-11 external thread allows direct engagement with standard threaded rod or clevis hardware. Key dimensions include a 5.25-inch thread length, a 6-inch hole-center-to-end measurement, and a 0.625-inch shank diameter. The eye hole head provides a 0.625-inch hole diameter for pin or bolt attachment. This part is sold individually and suited for installation by millwrights, pipefitters, HVAC mechanics, and maintenance technicians working with linkage assemblies.

This rod end is designed for use in applications requiring corrosion-resistant hardware, including HVAC damper linkages, fluid handling systems, and light industrial control linkages. The grade 304 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments where moisture, mild chemicals, or outdoor exposure are factors. The 1.25-inch head outside diameter and 0.625-inch head thickness provide a robust pivot point for high-cycle or load-bearing linkage configurations. It ships as a single unit and is sized to work with standard 5/8-inch pin hardware at the eye.

Key Features

• Grade 304 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• 5/8-11 external male thread for direct engagement with standard threaded rod or clevis hardware
• 6-inch hole-center-to-end length for extended linkage reach
• 5.25-inch thread length provides deep engagement and adjustability along the rod
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and suits food-adjacent or chemical-exposed environments
• Eye hole head with 0.625-inch hole diameter accommodates standard clevis pins or shoulder bolts

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or new-installation rod end for mechanical and HVAC linkage assemblies using 5/8-11 threaded rod with standard inch-series hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation of this rod end is typically performed by a qualified mechanical or HVAC technician. De-energize and lock out any actuator or motor driving the linkage before service. Thread engagement should be sufficient to prevent pull-out under operational load; consult applicable mechanical standards for minimum thread engagement requirements. Inspect the mating pin and clevis hardware for wear before reinstalling.
