SKF SAKAC M rod ends are spherical joints with male thread that allow oscillating motion and misalignment between shafts. They are used in mechanisms where smooth rotation and angle compensation are required, such as controls, linkages and cylinders. Their design with a metal body and sliding surface makes them suitable for moderate loads in industrial and automotive applications. MR Accesorios Industriales offers this line.

The SAKAC M designation reads as follows: the letters SAKAC identify the series of rod ends with male thread and steel cage, and the final M indicates that the body has a surface treatment. The number that follows the base code (for example, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 or 18) corresponds to the nominal bore diameter in millimeters. Thus, SAKAC 5 M has a 5 mm bore, SAKAC 10 M has 10 mm and SAKAC 18 M has 18 mm. The male thread is metric fine pitch, with standardized dimensions according to size.

These rod ends are used in steering linkages, hydraulic controls, pneumatic cylinders, automatic doors, packaging machines, tillage equipment and mechanisms for transmitting oscillating motion. In Argentina, they are common in the metalworking, automotive and food sectors and in the manufacture of agricultural machinery, where it is necessary to absorb misalignment and vibration without losing precision in movement.

To select a SAKAC M rod end, take into account the bore diameter, the type of thread (male or female) and the permissible oscillation angle. Assembly must ensure that the rod end works within its angular range, without forcing the joint. Lubrication is permanent in most cases, but in dusty or humid environments it is advisable to protect the area with additional seals. Alignment between the shank and the support is key to avoiding premature wear.

Regarding equivalents, SKF SAKAC M rod ends can be interchanged with other brands that follow the same dimensional designation, such as the POS series or similar, as long as the bore diameter, thread type and main dimensions match. Not all brands use exactly the same nomenclature, so it is essential to verify the measurements before replacing. MR Accesorios Industriales can advise you with part number comparison.
