High-Precision Spherical Bearings and Rod Ends: Reliability & Performance for Aerospace

A comprehensive range of high-precision spherical bearings and rod ends for aerospace applications, combining reliability, performance, and compliance with the strictest industry standards.

Spherical bearings

Engineered for performance and durability, our spherical bearings deliver smooth articulation even in the most challenging environments. Available in a range of materials—including aluminum, 440C stainless steel, and high-performance superalloys. We supply products compliant with industry standards such as MS14101, MIL-B-81820, M81936, and more.

Rod Ends

Rod ends allow for the direct integration of a threaded shank, enabling simple and efficient assembly. They ensure articulated motion while compensating for mechanical misalignments. We offer them in various materials, with optional lubricants upon request, and in compliance with aerospace standards such as M81935 and MS21151.

Linkages
