Product Details

This Threadless Ball Stud 12mm Lightweight Press Fit Ball Pin for Steering Suspension OEM Applications is made for press-fit installation. The 12mm shank goes into a reamed hole on the steering knuckle or control arm. No threads on the shank. It stays in place by interference fit. The ball head is 25.84mm. Overall height is 54.5mm. Aluminum construction keeps weight low. This part is not for every job. It is for OEM applications where the housing is too thin for threads, or where vibration would work a nut loose over time. If your drawing calls for a press-fit ball stud, this is the one. The bore must be clean and round. No drill marks, no oval shape. Check the hole size before you press. If the hole is too big, the stud will move. If the hole is too small, the aluminum shank will deform. Both mean scrap. A good fit feels tight all the way in.
