The Multiquip 2194 Rod End 1/2-20 M RH With Custom Ball is a genuine OEM component designed for a wide range of Multiquip and Whiteman ride-on power trowels, including HTX, STX, MD, LD, and PRX series machines. This is a direct OEM replacement sourced from Multiquip, ensuring the correct thread specification, ball geometry, and dimensional tolerances are met for your machine. Compatible models include HTX44Y5, HTX44Y4, HTX44K5, HTX44K4, HTX6H, HTXD6i, STXD6i, STX6H, STXDF, HTXG6DF, MD105, MD80, LD60, PRX, HTN28K, HTN27K, HTNS5S-2, HHNG5, EHHNK5, and JTO-Series trowels. Keeping this linkage component in good working condition is critical to the precise blade pitch control that defines trowel finishing performance.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Specification: — Manufactured to Multiquip's exact thread pitch and custom ball tolerances, ensuring the rod end transfers steering and blade pitch inputs without slop or binding.
- 1/2-20 Right-Hand Thread: — The RH thread specification allows correct installation and adjustment on the trowel's linkage system without modification to existing hardware.
- Custom Ball Design: — The integrated custom ball provides the articulation range required for the dynamic movement of ride-on trowel blade pitch mechanisms under load.
- Broad Ride-On Trowel Coverage: — Fits HTX44, HTX6H, HTXD6i, STX6H, STXD6i, HTXG6DF, MD105, MD80, LD60, PRX, HTN, HHN, and JTO-Series machines, making it a versatile stock item for trowel fleets.
- Blade Pitch Control Integrity: — A worn or failed rod end introduces play into the pitch linkage, leading to uneven blade angle, inconsistent finishing patterns, and accelerated wear on connected components.
A rod end is a pivoting linkage connector used in the blade pitch control system of ride-on power trowels. It connects control arms and linkage rods, allowing the operator to adjust blade angle precisely while the machine is in motion. When a rod end wears out, its internal ball develops excessive play, causing imprecise blade response, uneven concrete finishing, and potential stress on adjacent linkage components. Replacing a worn rod end promptly restores accurate pitch control and protects the surrounding steering and blade adjustment hardware.
