Chrome-Moly Steel with Teflon®/Kevlar® injection moulded liner.

McGill XMM - Racing Series Ultra High Performance Racing Series range features a loaded slot style of rod end that was introduced to the market in 1995. The body is machined with a significant groove going all the way around the interior of the body. The ball is then inserted into the machined slot and a Teflon®/Kevlar® material is injected. Serving as a liner to keep dirt and debris out, the Kevlar also lubricates the ball. In addition to providing added strength, the injection moulded race also won’t “pound out” like traditional PTFE (Teflon®) liners, increasing the longevity of your rod ends. The body is heat treated and is made from Chrome Molybdenum for excellent strength and corrosion resistance.  This is simply the best rod end design for most motorsport applications.

XMM Range - Ideal for Motorsport and Marine Applications.

Half Nut - JNRM18x2mm

McGill half nuts are manufactured to be within excellent tolerances. These are commonly used for motorsport when securing rod ends to link bars. As the nut is half the thickness, it allows for maximum adjustment.

• Ideal for securing linkage bars in place on the rod end to prevent rotation of the bar.
• As the nuts are half the thickness of standard nuts, a finer adjustment can be made as the rod end can be screwed further into the link bar.
• Mild steel, CNC precision machined.
• Protective coated for corrosion resistance (Bright Zinc Plated).
• Great price &Free 1st Class UK P&P.

Insert - INSM18Rx2mm

 McGill threaded inserts are manufactured to be within excellent tolerances. These are commonly used for motorsport when making linkage bars.

• Ideal for welding into tubes to manufacture 4 link bars, ladder bars, wishbones, castor arms, compression struts, watts linkages etc.
• Save time by using these in place of drilling and tapping out solid steel. 
• CNC precision machined.
• Designed to be welded into standard sizes of CDS or ERW tubing (data specified in below table).
• Made from Carbon Steel 1045 (C45) *
• Protective coated for corrosion resistance. (Bright Zinc Plated)
• Weldable as the thin Zinc coating is burned off easily in the welding process.
• Great price &Free 1st Class UK P&P.

* Carbon Steel 1045

C45 is a medium carbon steel is used when greater strength and hardness is desired than in the "as rolled" condition. Extreme size accuracy, straightness and concentricity combine to minimize wear in high speed applications. Turned, ground and polished.
