Description

Main Part Number: 100144.0
• Replacement/Related Numbers: 6701201, 42623
• Product Name: Ball Joint / Ball Joint
• Product Description: This is a ball joint typically used to connect a hydraulic cylinder to a lever or other linkage mechanism. It serves as a flexible connection point, allowing limited movement in multiple directions while transmitting push and pull forces.
• Common Locations: Typically located at the end of hydraulic actuators, such as those used for lifting or adjusting harvesting tables, adjusting threshing drums, and adjusting screen boxes.

Main Functions and Features
1. Flexible Connection: Provides universal rotation to compensate for misalignment during installation and operation.
2. Force Transmission: Converts the linear motion of the hydraulic cylinder into oscillating or adjusting motion of the mechanical component.
3. Durable and Wear-Resistant: Typically made of high-strength steel, the ball joint is hardened and equipped with a wear-resistant bushing or bearing to ensure long service life. 4. Sealed and Dust-Proof: A dust cover prevents dust, dirt, and moisture from entering the ball socket, maintaining lubrication and reducing wear.
