I was considering Aurora AMTs. The AMTs are rated at 28k pounds, the FK JMTs at 11.5k with a price difference of about $20 per end. My dilemma with this is listed below.


As mentioned several times already, having a rediculous load rating won't prevent failure.


The important part is to make sure the ball and housing material are made of stainless, or something equally resistant to corrosion.

What are you measuring?

Are you measureing the diameter of the threaded male rod end, or the female insert?

Also, I hope you are using a vernier caliper.

Worse comes to worse, you can always go to a hardware store and see which nut fits the rod end.
