Decrease the ID of your rod end to allow approximately 60° of misalignment. Reducers attach to your rod end to move your fastener away from the rod-end body.

Without changing the ID, these inserts handle some misalignment on rod ends. They attach to your rod end to move your fastener away from the rod-end body.
Washer-style inserts also protect rod ends. They’re commonly known as retaining safety washers.
Cone-style inserts help position rod ends between receiving forks, straps, and clevises.
303 stainless steel inserts won’t rust in wet, humid, and washdown environments.
