Aurora Bearing AB-6Z Spherical Rod End Bearing

Aurora Bearing AB-6Z is a precision-grade male spherical rod end bearing with a 0.3750 in bore and a left-hand threaded shank size of 3/8-24, equipped with a grease zerk fitting. As part of Aurora's AB-series, this inch-series rod end uses a spherical bearing insert housed in a robust body to permit rotation about the ball while accommodating angular misalignment between connected components. The bore diameter of 0.3750 in accepts a mating shaft or fastener of that size, and the 3/8-24 LH thread provides a secure attachment to mating hardware with matching left-hand threads. This configuration is used to create pivoting joints in mechanical linkages, control linkages, robotic or automation assemblies, and other applications where a compact, threaded male rod end with lubrication access is required. When selecting AB-6Z, ensure the mating part features the same LH 3/8-24 thread and a 0.375 in bore to achieve proper fit and clearance in the joint.
