Durbal M16 x 2 Male Forged Steel Rod End Metric, 16mm Bore BRTM 16-00-501

Durbal BRTM 16-00-501 Rod End Metric is a premium line forged steel rod end designed for industrial applications requiring low maintenance and high reliability. This rod end features an M16 x 2 male thread connection and a bore diameter of 16mm, making it suitable for precise mechanical assemblies.

The rod end housing is made from forged steel that has been tempered and case hardened to resist wear and deformation. The bearing race is ground and lapped, while the threads are rolled and surface galvanized to enhance corrosion resistance and durability. The right-hand rolled thread supports secure mounting and easy installation.

Inside, a hardened ball bearing steel inner ring that has been superfine ground provides smooth rotational movement and exceptional mechanical performance. The rod end is designed for operation within a temperature range of -20°C to +120°C, making it suitable for diverse industrial environments including manufacturing, fluid power systems, and mechanical machinery maintenance.

Lubrication can be applied using Polyrex EP2 or soap complex, enabling extended service life with low maintenance. The system offers a radial bearing clearance of 15 to 30 micrometers enabling self-aligning capabilities to accommodate misalignments in assemblies.

Constructed of forged steel tempered and case hardened for toughness. 16mm bore diameter and M16 x 2 male thread connection for accurate fit. Dynamic load rating of 13.3 kN and static load rating of 8.9 kN for robust performance.

Thread direction is right-hand with surface galvanized finish to resist corrosion. Ball bearing steel inner ring hardened and superfine ground for smooth operation. Wide operating temperature range from -20°C to 120°C suitable for demanding conditions.

Low maintenance with lubrication options including Polyrex EP2 and soap complex. Bearing clearance of 15-30 μm radial ensures self-aligning action in mechanical systems. Made in Germany for assured quality and reliability in industrial usage.

This rod end is ideal for industrial, mechanical, hydraulic, and fluid power tool applications requiring precise, high-strength bearing solutions that minimize maintenance. Its premium qualities make it an excellent choice for engineers and technicians seeking dependable components for rotary bearing assemblies.
