The bearing is made from polyoxymethylene (POM), a material known for its low friction and wear resistance, contributing to smooth steering response. The coated black finish offers protection against corrosion, extending the service life of the component. Both ends have male threaded studs with specific thread diameters (10.0 mm and 14.0 mm) and pitches (1.25 and 1.0 respectively), designed for secure fitment. The included chloroprene rubber dust boot protects internal components from dirt and moisture, while the pre-greased assembly reduces initial maintenance requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Problem Resolution\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis steering tie rod end is typically used as an inner tie rod replacement in various vehicle models requiring these exact dimensions and thread specifications.
