These mechanical components - standardized to ISO 12240 (formerly DIN 648) - are used for applications where multidirectional self-aligning movements are required.
Our extensive experience as distributors of FLURO® authorizes us to affirm that your range of ball and socket joints and rod ends are high-performance solutions that stand out for their quality, flexibility and speed. In fact, the company guarantees good performance of the parts even when they are exposed to high or permanent loads.
Features of the FLURO range of spherical plain bearings and rod ends®
The FLURO® product range you will find at ADALIS Industrial Solutions includes spherical plain bearings (ISO 12240-1) and rod ends (ISO 12240-4) in the E (narrow series) and K (wide series) size series.
They are available in:
- Versions with relubrication.
- Maintenance-free versions.
- In different materials depending on the working conditions to be faced by the parts (zinc-plated steel, stainless steel AISI304 and AISI316, surface treatments, etc.).
Criteria to be considered when choosing the right ball and socket joints and rod ends
The more the environmental and application conditions are defined before choosing the most appropriate ball and socket joints and joint headsThe easier it will be to ensure optimum performance and long life of the parts. Among the most relevant criteria that ADALIS asks our customers when they ask us for advice are:
- Temperature fluctuations.
- Vibration level.
- The contact that the parts will have with elements such as water, salt or acid substances, etc.
- The forces acting on the bearings are also relevant, such as pitch angle, resistance, surface pressure, tensile and compressive forces, clearance and type of connections.
Allied with FLURO® to offer you a first class technical advisory service.
Relying on the experience of the FLURO® team, we offer a support service to our customers to help them make the best possible decision when choosing the most suitable spherical plain bearings and rod ends for their machinery. The main objective is to achieve the longest possible service life.
We will help you choose between maintenance-free or relubricatable rod endsWe can also determine the most suitable materials and surface treatment. In some cases, we also deal with possible readjustments of the parts.
When these standard solutions are not valid for a particular application, FLURO® has the capability to manufacture customized parts according to customer requirements. These special parts are designed in 3D CAD programs in the Technical Office of this industrial solutions brand. Its team is fully qualified to develop complex projects, new types of systems and create global solutions.
