Rod ends in the SKF SALKAC M line are spherical plain bearings built with a male threaded shank. They handle radial loads and the oscillating motion found in transmission, steering and linkage applications, and they compensate for misalignment between connected parts. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line within its bearings and rod ends range. Send the part number and our team will get a quote back to you.
Reading the designation helps you confirm you are ordering the right item. SA means the rod end has a male threaded shank. L tells you the thread is left-hand. K indicates a steel cage design. AC identifies the male thread, and M means the body carries metric thread. The figures that follow, such as 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 and 20, give the bore diameter. Every element of the code points to a specific configuration.
These rod ends appear in food processing, metallurgy, agriculture and automotive work. Typical mounting points include hydraulic cylinders, steering linkages, suspension arms, conveyors and machine tools. Earthmoving equipment and packaging lines also use them, where corrosion and changing loads come into play.
Selection comes down to three basics: bore diameter, thread type (metric or inch) and thread direction (right-hand or left-hand). Check static and dynamic load capacity against the SKF catalogue. At installation, confirm alignment and tighten correctly, and add seals where dust or moisture is present. Lubricating on a regular schedule helps service life, particularly where movement is continuous.
SKF rod ends can replace other brands built to the same dimensional standard. For a replacement, compare the full part number and the technical data, including bore diameter and thread type. Two rod ends with the same diameter do not necessarily share the same load capacity, so confirm the exact designation. If anything is unclear, send us the original part number.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the M suffix mean in the SALKAC M series?
- It shows that the rod end has metric thread on the shank, which matters when matching the mounting. If your equipment uses inch thread, ask about other variants.
- How do I pick the right SALKAC M size?
- The number in the part number, such as 5, 6 or 8, is the bore diameter in millimeters. Measure the shaft or pin where it mounts and match that figure. Send us your dimensions if you want help confirming.
- Can SKF SALKAC M rod ends replace other brands?
- They can, provided dimensions and load capacity line up. Rod ends made to international standards are generally interchangeable. Compare the complete part number and specifications first, and we can help you find the equivalent.
