FOX-VPS - Ball End Joints

Commercially available spherical bearings typically offer around 7 degrees of rotational freedom in 2 axes, which is sometimes insufficient for certain types of test. Designed to fit in place of a standard spherical eye end FOX-VPS have devised a spherical ball end joint, complete with backlash adjustment, which provides up to 20 degrees of rotational freedom. Manufactured from high strength alloy steel and coated with a low friction, hard wearing bearing material, these devices can be interchanged with existing DIN648 style eye ends and actuator mounts to provide increased flexibility in the test laboratory.
