AR and AR-N series extra capacity female rod ends are manufactured with an alloy steel heat treated outer member to
produce higher static load ratings.This series is intended for he***ier duty applicati*** such as linkages on hoists and cranes
or on the ends of hydraulic cylinder connectors.
NOTES
1. Rod ends with Zerk type grease fittings can be obtained by ordering the AR-N series; Example: AR-8N.
2. Grease fittings are ***ailable on sizes 4 through 12 only.
3. Optional flush type fittings are ***ailable on special order by adding “FN” suffix to the part numbers; Example: AR-8FN.
4. Load ratings apply to the AR series only. For AR-N load ratings contact engineering.
5. This series is magnetic particle inspected upon request only.
6. To order left hand threaded units add letter “L” to part number prefix; Example: ARL-8.
7. For design modificati***, see page 173.
