Product Number: RE16
Variations
When a strut and its mounting do not line up perfectly, a rose eye absorbs the misalignment. The Metrol RE16 is a steel rose eye (spherical bearing) end fitting with an M14 thread and a 14mm bore. The spherical bearing at its centre lets the strut self-align and pivot on more than one axis, so it tolerates slight angular and lateral misalignment that would bind a plain eye. It screws onto the strut rod and pins to its mounting, and its thread suits a gas strut with a 20mm rod. Like every end fitting in the range it transfers the strut's force to the structure: a ball joint gives a connection that swivels in any direction, an eye a single-axis hinge, a clevis fork an in-line pinned joint, and a rose eye absorbs slight misalignment. It threads onto a gas strut with a 20mm rod, and is chosen by matching the thread to the strut and the size to the space behind the mounting. Typical applications include counter hatches, canopy panels, loft hatches, serving flaps. Across the range, the rose eye fittings span M6 to M14 (RE8–RE16), one for each strut rod size. The self-aligning bearing reduces side-loading on the strut, helping it run smoothly and last longer.
