| Parameter Category | Specification | Notes / Standard | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Manufacturer Part Number | S16008-1010 | The -1010 suffix strongly indicates a left-hand (LH) thread. | |
| Bearing Type | Female Threaded, Standard Duty Spherical Plain Bearing / Rod End | ||
| Thread Designation | Female Thread (Internal Thread) | ||
| Key Design Feature | Left-Hand Thread (LH) | The thread is reversed. Turns counter-clockwise to tighten. | |
| Thread Size | 3/8″ – 24 UNF | This is a very common size for this suffix. Must be confirmed. | |
| Thread Direction | Left-Hand (LH) | Critical distinguishing feature. | |
| Inner Diameter (Bore of Outer Ring) | ~0.500 inch (1/2″) | ~12.7 mm | Approximate bore size of the housing. Similar to -66 size. |
| Outer Diameter (O.D.) | ~0.9375 inch (15/16″) | ~23.81 mm | |
| Width | ~0.750 inch (3/4″) | ~19.05 mm | Overall thickness. |
| Bearing Housing Material | Carbon Steel / Case Hardened | Often corrosion-resistant plated. | |
| Liner Material | Self-Lubricating Composite (e.g., PTFE/Nomex) OR Porous Bronze | Can be either. Defined by the presence of a grease fitting. | |
| Ball Material | Case Hardened Carbon Steel | ||
| Static Load Capacity | ~8,000 – 10,000 lbf (~36 – 44 kN) | Value is approximate; same as right-hand version of similar size. | |
| Dynamic Load Capacity | ~4,000 – 5,000 lbf (~18 – 22 kN) | Value is approximate. | |
| Lubrication | Varies: Maintenance-Free (PTFE) or Lubricatable (Bronze). | Defined by the presence of a grease fitting. | |
| Primary Applications | Used in assemblies where prevention of unintended loosening is critical. Commonly used in pairs with right-hand threaded rod ends on a turnbuckle for adjusting tension, length, or alignment in linkages, cables, and push-pull systems. Also used in rotating assemblies where normal rotation would loosen a standard thread. |
