This rod end transmits axial and radial loads through a spherical plain bearing with external threads, allowing direct connection to a mating thread without additional mounting hardware. GAKR25-PW is rated for a basic dynamic load of 84800 N and has a net mass of 0.67 kg, giving it enough mass to handle moderate load transfer at the connection point. The bearing is maintenance-free and supplied without sealing, so the design relies on the surface pairing of the spherical plain bearing rather than a lubrication system for continued operation. The external thread design of GAKR25-PW allows it to work as an articulating link where angular misalignment between connected components needs to be compensated without adjustment.
