Yokomo YOKRP-101SH Precision Titanium Ball End for S-size linkages  [YOKRP-101SH]

Precision titanium ball end

This Yokomo YOKRP-101SH ball end is an RC-scale linkage component sized for 4.8 S-size applications with an 11.5mm ball end length, manufactured in titanium for a balance of strength and reduced mass. It is intended for use on steering and suspension linkage assemblies where compact S-size connections are used.

In practice the ball end functions as the terminal joint between turnbuckles or linkage rods and ball studs on servo horns, suspension arms, or bulkheads. Its titanium body resists deformation under typical model loads and helps maintain consistent geometry during setup and track use.

Installation is straightforward: thread the ball end onto compatible S-size rod threads until secure, then seat the ball onto the mating stud ensuring full engagement without excess preload. Verify free articulation through the intended range of motion and recheck after initial runs to confirm there is no loosening.

For tuning, use this ball end when you need a compact, lightweight terminal that preserves steering and suspension geometry; small changes in ball end length affect throw and toe link geometry, so adjust incrementally and test on the track or field to evaluate handling differences.
