SKF SAA ES-2RS series radial rod ends are spherical rod ends with double sealing that allow oscillating movements and misalignment between shafts. They are used in mechanisms where smooth rotation and combined load capacity are required, such as hydraulic cylinders, steering and suspensions. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as an official brand, with technical advice to choose the correct size according to the part number.

The SAA designation identifies a radial rod end with an internal thread on the outer ring, from the SKF basic series. The number that follows — for example, in SAA 40 ES-2RS or SAA 50 ES-2RS — indicates the bore diameter in millimeters. The ES suffix indicates that the inner ring has lubrication grooves and holes, and 2RS that it includes double-lip seals on both sides. Thus, SAA 80 ES-2RS combines these features for a larger diameter.

These rod ends are used in industries in Argentina such as metalworking, agriculture and automotive. They are found in hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders, steering arms, suspensions, road machinery, earthmoving equipment and transmission systems that require oscillation. They are also found in presses, cranes and lifting equipment, where they absorb misalignment and combined radial and axial loads.

To select a rod end, take into account the bore diameter, the thread type (internal or external) and the required sealing. The ES-2RS series already comes sealed, which makes it suitable for dusty or humid environments. During assembly, ensure correct alignment and avoid striking the seals. Periodic lubrication with suitable grease extends service life, especially in applications with oscillating movement or alternating loads.

SKF rod ends are interchangeable with those of other European brands that follow the same dimensional and thread designation. When replacing, verify that the bore diameter, width and thread type match the original part number. If space allows, a rod end with 2RS sealing offers better protection than an open one. Always check the manufacturer's tolerances and radial clearance to ensure equivalent operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the ES-2RS suffix mean on an SKF rod end?
The ES suffix indicates that the inner ring has lubrication grooves and holes. The 2RS indicates that it includes double-lip seals on both sides, which protects against dust and humidity. Together, they identify a sealed, relubricable radial rod end.
How do I choose the correct size of an SAA rod end?
The number in the part number, such as 40 or 50, corresponds to the bore diameter in millimeters. Also verify the thread type and the width. If you have doubts, send us the original part number via WhatsApp and we will confirm the size.
Are SKF rod ends interchangeable with other brands?
Yes, in general they are interchangeable with brands that follow the same dimensional and thread designation. When replacing, compare diameter, width and thread type. It is always advisable to verify the manufacturer's tolerances and radial clearance.
