Delphi Steering Tie Rod End TA1152 Overview
The Delphi TA1152 steering tie rod end is engineered for precise steering control and durability. Designed specifically for select BMW models, this component ensures reliable connection between the steering rack and the wheel assembly.
- Compatible with BMW 5 Series, 6 Series, 7 Series, 8 Series, M5, and M6 models
- Black coated finish for corrosion resistance
- Pre-greased with included dust boot for extended service life
- Steel housing and tie rod material for strength and durability

Technical Specifications and Features
The TA1152 tie rod end features a coated black finish that protects against rust and wear. Both ends are male with a clockwise thread direction, ensuring compatibility with the specified BMW steering systems. The steel housing and tie rod material provide structural integrity, while the plastic bearing material reduces friction. The dust boot, made from chloroprene rubber, helps keep contaminants out, preserving the joint's performance. This part is pre-greased but does not include a grease fitting or greaseable feature. The tie rod end measures 42.5 mm in width and 72.3 mm in height, with a tube diameter of 14.0 mm (0.551 inches).
