The SI8T/K PHSA8 Right Hand Ball Joint Metric Threaded Rod End Bearing SI8TK is a single piece rod end bearing designed for precise pivoting in metric threaded assemblies. It features a female internal thread and a leftthread option as listed, with sizes ranging from 5mm to 20mm. Color option is PHSA5. Key benefits Smooth, reliable pivoting: the ball joint provides a lowfriction articulation suitable for dynamic linkages. Metric compatibility: designed to integrate with standard metric threaded components for straightforward installation and replacement. Secure mounting with leftthread option: the listed leftthread configuration helps ensure a secure, vibrationresistant connection in compatible assemblies. Compact and versatile: compact form factor supports a wide range of applications while maintaining strength and accuracy. Easy identification: color PHSA5 helps distinguish the specific variant in multipart systems. Key attributes Model and type: SI8T/K PHSA8 Right Hand Ball Joint Metric Threaded Rod End Bearing SI8TK. Threading: metric threaded rod end bearing with female thread; size option specified as Left Thread. Size range: 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm, 18mm, 20mm. Orientation: Right Hand Ball Joint. Color: PHSA5. Material: not specified in this listing. Function: enables a pivoting, articulating connection between rods and moving components. Brand consistency: aligns with the SI8T/K family and SI8TK designation for compatibility with existing parts and drawings. Applications and use cases Industrial automation and machinery: connect robotic arms, actuators, or linkage rods where a precise, pivoting joint is required and metric thread compatibility is essential. Robotic grippers and servo linkages: use as a pivot joint in end effectors or motion assemblies to allow controlled angular movement with reliable mounting. Custom mechanical projects and hobby builds: suitable for CNC machines, 3D printer frame linkages, or other custom machinery needing a durable rod end bearing with metric threads and leftthread mounting. Notes for selection and installation Verify the correct size (5–20 mm) and confirm the thread direction (leftthread) matches your mating hardware. Check compatibility with your existing rod ends, brackets, and fasteners to ensure proper fit and clearance. Confirm that the righthand ball joint orientation meets the rotation direction requirements of your assembly. Packaging Includes: 1 piece.
