Threaded Rod End Bearing
This 6 mm coarse-thread heim joint provides a precision articulating connection for steering linkages, tie rods and control arms. The male-threaded body measures 40 mm by 50 mm overall length. It is supplied new from Midwest Fastener Corp.
Fitment and Limits
Builders assembling custom suspension or steering linkages will find the 6 mm-1.0 thread pitch matches many metric rod ends. The component is not suited for applications requiring a larger bore, a finer thread pitch or a female-threaded housing.
Critical Specification
The 6 mm-1.0 coarse thread is the single dimension that determines whether this rod end mates with your existing linkage. Verify the thread pitch and diameter before ordering.

Questions about this item
How often should the 6mm-1.0 coarse thread on the 36521 heim joint be inspected for wear?
Inspect the thread engagement and ball articulation at each scheduled chassis service; replace the joint if play exceeds the manufacturer's service limit for your specific suspension design.
What is the first limit reached when the 36521 heim joint operates continuously under load?
The articulating ball-to-race interface will develop measurable clearance before the 40mm or 50mm shank dimensions yield, making joint looseness the primary service indicator.
Does the 36521 heim joint generate noticeable heat or noise during all-day operation?
Under normal articulation angles the joint runs silently and at ambient temperature; audible clunk or detectable warmth signals excessive clearance or lubrication loss requiring immediate inspection.
