The Spherco AR8N spherical rod end bearing from RBC Bearings’ Standard Series AR N is a female, four‑piece, metal‑to‑metal rod end with a 0.5 in bore. It is machined from 4130 or 4340 alloy steel in a right‑hand configuration and provides a pivot point for mechanical linkages and automation that require angular accommodation of misalignment while transmitting loads through a spherical bearing. The AR8N variant supports compact‑space joint connections where a robust, metal‑to‑metal rod end is needed.
