BEF Series Rod Ends by Durbal are available from Maryland Metrics

In many cases Durbal heavy duty rod ends with integrated spherical plain bearings serve their purpose. They are primary used for small swiveling or tilting movements at low speeds. They stand out for their high load ability and can also be used for shock like loads. The rod end ball slides on a plastic bearing shell consisting of a glass fiber-filed nylon/Teflon compound. This design ensures an absolutely maintenance free rod end. Durbal heavy duty plain bearing rod ends have a slight initial stress and virtually no clearance. The plastic material used has a favorable secondary advantage in that it absorbs any foreign particles and encloses them so that no damage can occur. Also another side benefit is that the 3 part composite liner sound dampens operational noise. The joint balls of the DURBAL heavy duty rod ends with the integrated spherical plain bearing is covered with a hard chrome plating. This reliable corrosion protection ensures that the function of the rod end will not be affected by a corroded ball surface under humid operating conditions.
