Rod Noses

Threaded Rod Noses are used to provide a seat for the headed Rod, and screw into a variety of Eyes, Forks, and Turnbuckle Rod Bodies. Most are available in a variety of Thread sizes allowing the use of common fittings with different Rod sizes, and the same Rod with different size fittings. The small Rod Noses also allow the larger mating fittings to be attached after, for instance, sliding the Rod through a Furling System. Noses are secured with Loctite, or by 'dinging' them for permanent attachment.

Fatigue Indicating Rod Noses - E230, E231, E232
Fatigue Indicating Rod Noses are longer than Standard Noses and are tapered. They feature a recess midway down the taper designed so that the lower end will break off and slide down the Rod to indicate incipient bending stresses in advance of failure. All feature a RH UNF Thread.
