Tritan Cf 10 Ball Joint Linkage Rod End 5/8-18 Thread

Product Description

The TRITAN CF 10 is a plain female spherical rod end designed for ball joint linkage applications in mechanical and industrial systems. It features a 5/8-18 right-hand shank thread, a bore diameter of 0.625 inches, and a maximum static load capacity of 9,813 pounds. The housing is constructed from carbon steel, with a steel raceway and steel ball, finished in zinc plating for corrosion resistance. This rod end is a precision motion-control component typically installed by maintenance mechanics, millwrights, or industrial technicians working on linkage assemblies, control rods, and actuator connections.

The CF 10 is suited for use in industrial machinery, agricultural equipment, and mechanical linkage systems where a female threaded rod end with a spherical bearing is required. Its right-hand thread orientation and 1-inch shank diameter make it a common fit in push-pull control linkages, steering linkages, and valve actuator assemblies. The zinc-plated finish provides a base level of protection in moderate-exposure environments. Maximum ball swivel is 26 degrees, accommodating angular misalignment in service.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for industrial linkage assemblies requiring a 5/8-18 right-hand female threaded spherical rod end with a 0.625-inch bore.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by qualified mechanics or millwrights familiar with linkage and bearing assemblies. Ensure the mating shaft or clevis pin matches the 0.625-inch bore before assembly. Disconnect and de-energize all associated mechanical or hydraulic systems before removing or installing rod ends. Do not exceed the rated static load capacity during service or operation.
