3/8 x 1/2 Clevis Rod End

The FK ROD ENDS 3/8 x 1/2 Clevis Rod End (CV5) is a precision linkage component designed for marine applications, particularly in boat steering, throttle, and trim systems. This part is essential for ensuring reliable articulation under load, which is crucial for effective control in various boating conditions.

Engineered to connect control cables to engine mounts and hydraulic actuators, this clevis-style rod end is built to handle both tension and lateral movement. The 3/8-inch threaded stud and 1/2-inch clevis eye design ensure secure fastening and smooth pivot articulation, minimizing the risk of binding. FK ROD ENDS manufactures these components to tight tolerances, maintaining rotational freedom even in corrosive marine environments.

This rod end is suitable for various marine installations, including outboard and inboard systems, and is commonly used in both OEM replacement and aftermarket linkage setups. Regular maintenance of steering and throttle systems often involves replacing worn rod ends, which can significantly improve responsiveness and control. The compact design allows for easy integration into tight engine compartments and linkage assemblies.
