5/16" x 5/16" UNF Quick Disconnect Ball Joint – Plated Steel

The 21208 is a plated steel quick disconnect ball joint designed for mechanical control cable and linkage applications requiring a 5/16" UNF connection.

The quick-release design uses an internal spring-loaded housing that slides back to release the stud. This provides a convenient way to disconnect a control cable or linkage when carrying out servicing, adjustment or maintenance.

The 5/16" x 5/16" configuration is suitable for applications where both the ball joint housing and stud require a 5/16" UNF thread.

Common applications include push-pull control cables, shifter cables, throttle cables and mechanical linkage systems.
