The U-B MACHINE Tube .750 x 11 x 1/2 thread (42-1105-E) is a swedged steel tube built for suspension and chassis fabricators working on street and track cars. It measures 0.75 inches in outer diameter and 11 inches long, with 1/2-20 female threads that let it serve as a trailing arm, strut rod, or adjustable link body. This is a component piece, not a finished assembly, so it's aimed at builders who run their own rod ends and spacers. If you're sourcing parts for a custom suspension build, this tube gives you a clean, threaded starting point with a known length and thread pitch.
The tube is made in the United States from steel and finished in black powder coat for corrosion resistance. Both ends carry 1/2-20 internal threads, and U-B Machine offers right-hand and left-hand directional options, which matters when you build an adjustable link that needs opposing threads for in-place length changes. The body is knurled for positive gripping, so a wrench or vise holds it without chewing up the finish. At 0.75 inches OD, it pairs with standard 1/2-20 rod ends and weld bungs, and U-B Machine produces this tube in multiple lengths if 11 inches doesn't match your geometry. Shipping weight runs about 0.44 lbs, which keeps unsprung mass low on a finished link or trailing arm assembly.
Builders reach for this tube when assembling adjustable strut rods, panhard links, or trailing arms where a specific 11-inch length and 1/2-20 thread fit the design. Thread in your chosen rod ends, set length, and lock it down with jam nuts. Because it ships unassembled, you control bend, hardware, and final length to suit your chassis. It works alongside our other end link and control arm components when you're piecing together a full setup. Match the thread direction to your assembly before ordering so the link adjusts the way you intend.
The U-B Machine 42-1105-E uses 1/2-20 female threads on both ends. U-B Machine offers right-hand and left-hand directional options, which lets you build an adjustable link with opposing threads for in-place length changes. Confirm the thread direction you need before ordering so it matches your assembly.
The tube's 1/2-20 internal threads accept standard 1/2-20 male-shank rod ends. With a 0.75-inch outer diameter, it also pairs with common 0.75 OD weld bungs and spacers used in suspension link fabrication.
No. The 42-1105-E ships as a bare threaded tube, not a finished link. You supply your own rod ends, jam nuts, and hardware, then set the final length to fit your chassis geometry. This gives you full control over the build.
