TPN Rod end

What are T.P.N. rod end ?

T.P.N. rod end are ball ends specially designed for hydraulic components. Their rectangular base enables them to be adapted to various tie-rod and steering systems, particularly in the case of a trailer hitch. Unlike other types of spherical plain bearings, they have no centering pin, making them particularly suitable for applications requiring great freedom of movement.

These rod ends can be completely dismantled, making them easy to maintain and replace in the event of wear. The combination of steel/steel sliding surfaces guarantees excellent resistance to friction and heavy loads. What's more, they are fitted with a grease nipple for efficient lubrication, prolonging service life and optimizing operation.

How to choose the right TPN rod end ?

To select the right T.P.N. rod end for your application, it's essential to consider a number of criteria, including internal diameter:

• Operating environment: if your application is in a damp or corrosive environment, opt for a stainless steel ball joint to avoid oxidation.

• The type of stress applied: a ball joint used for a steering tie-rod should be more resistant than one intended for an agricultural machine.

• The fastening system: it's important to check compatibility with pins, springs and other mechanical components.

What are T.P.N. rod end used for ?

TPN, GF and SCF series spherical plain bearings are widely used in many sectors. TPN, GF and SCF series spherical plain bearings are used in a variety of sectors:

• Automotive and industrial vehicles: they are used in transmission,coupling and steering systems.

• Agricultural machinery: they are found in friction mechanisms, discs and engine components.

• Forestry and woodworking: their robustness means they can be used extensively on cutting and handling equipment.

• Construction equipment: they are integrated into the feet of mobile structures and the supports of pneumatic-tired machines.

How do I maintain tpn rod end ?

Regular maintenance of your spherical plain bearings is crucial to guaranteeing their performance. Spherical plain bearings with an inner diameter in mm and maintenance require special attention to ensure their smooth running. We recommend applying lubricant with the grease nipple, and checking seals and associated bushes for wear. When replacement is necessary, be sure to identify the dimensions and contents of the kit supplied by the manufacturer.

How to install tpn rod end ?

For a successful installation, make sure you have the right tools, such as a suitable wrench and a precision knife to remove old seals or residues. It's also advisable to check that the hub and filter are in good condition before fitting the new ball joint.

Don't forget that some ball joints are supplied with mounting sets, and it may be worth checking the mounting head to ensure optimum installation.

With these tips, you'll be ready to choose and install the right T.P.N. head for your needs, ensuring better performance and longer life for your equipment.
