static Axial Load Calculation
The maximum axial load permissible for a rod
end is determined by the following formula. This formula does
not take into consideration the bending of the shank due to a moment
force. Also, this formula does not consider the strength
of the stake in cartridge type construction.
A = .78 [(E + .176 H)2 – E2] x X
Where:
X = Allowable Stress (see table below)
E = Ball Diameter
H = Housing Width
