JMX/JFX Series Stainless Steel Rod End
JMX and JFX rod ends feature a 3-piece heavy-duty construction with a self-lubricating PTFE liner bonded between the 440C ball and 304 housing. The liner runs completely dry, delivering zero-maintenance, smooth articulation without greasing schedules. Housings in 304 standard, with 316 and 17-4PH options.
Applications:
Designed for high-load, high-cycle industrial linkages requiring maintenance-free operation and low friction. Suitable for packaging machinery, automated motion controls, and dry industrial linkages where grease contamination cannot be tolerated.
- Three-Piece Construction
- Self-Lubricating PTFE Liner
- High Static Load Capacity
- 304 Standard, 316 / 17-4PH Options
