The alloy steel ball is heat treated and chrome plated for resistance to wear and corrosion. This bearing is lubricated with oil at the factory and requires no additional lubricants. It has a maximum operating temperature of 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). This spherical rod end bearing is suitable for use in various applications such as textile manufacturing equipment, agricultural machinery, and off-road vehicles, among others.

Rod end bearings, also called heim joints or spherical rod ends, are articulating joints that are attached to the ends of tie rods, steering links, and cylinders to provide a transfer of motion and force between two points. They consist of a spherical swivel with a cylindrical bore through which a bolt may pass pressed into a housing that has a threaded shank. Rod end bearings are used in applications such as steering linkages, agricultural machinery, and textile manufacturing equipment, among others
