GE / SBB (Spherical Plain Bearings)

GE / SBB are radial spherical plain bearings used for heavy-duty pivot points where you need misalignment capability and high load capacity (e.g., linkages, loader arms, cylinder eyes). They’re typically steel-on-steel or lined depending on the series, and are chosen when shock loads and oscillating motion are common.

GF (Hydraulic Rod End, Square Weld-on Housing)

GF type is a hydraulic rod end with a square weld-on housing designed for robust cylinder/pivot connections where welding into a structure is required. Built for oscillating motion and misalignment at the joint.

GK (Hydraulic Rod End, Round Weld-on Housing)

GK type is a hydraulic rod end with a round weld-on housing, used similarly to GF but with a round weld profile—common on fabricated cylinder joints and machine linkages. Selected when you want a weld-in spherical joint with misalignment capability.

GIHR K (Hydraulic Rod End, Female Thread)

GIHR K is a hydraulic rod end with a female thread, intended for cylinder rod connections where the joint needs to accommodate misalignment and oscillating movement under load.

GIHN K (Hydraulic Rod End, Female Thread)

GIHN K is also a female-thread hydraulic rod end range for heavy-duty linkage/cylinder applications, chosen for aligned assembly needs while still allowing angular misalignment at the bearing.

TS (Rod End Series for Weld-on Applications)

TS series rod ends are used in heavy linkage/cylinder-style applications where oscillation + misalignment is expected, and are commonly specified in industrial and mobile equipment joints.

SI (Rod End, Female Thread)

SI types are female-thread rod ends (spherical plain bearing in a rod-end body), used on adjustable linkages and cylinder connections where you need angular movement plus easy assembly/adjustment.

SA (Rod End, Male Thread)

SA types are male-thread rod ends, typically used for adjustable linkages where the rod end threads directly into a mating component, while the spherical plain insert handles misalignment and oscillation.
