XCMG Crane Pull-Rod End Joint: Application and Matching Guide
A pull-rod end transfers movement through a crane carrier linkage. Correct taper and thread geometry are essential to eliminate free play without loading the joint incorrectly.
For a faster quotation: send thread diameter and pitch, left- or right-hand thread, tapered-pin dimensions and photos of both ends of the removed joint.

Where This Part Is Used
Used in steering or mechanical control linkages on compatible XCMG crane carriers. Similar-looking ends may differ in thread direction or taper.
Failure Clues and Workshop Check
Excess steering play, knocking, torn dust boots or uneven tire response can indicate wear. Inspect the complete rod and mating arm before replacing the end alone.
Installation and Handover
Do not hammer the tapered stud into place. Use correct seating and torque practice, secure the locknut, set linkage length and perform alignment and steering checks.

Buyer FAQ
Why must thread direction be confirmed?
Some linkages pair left- and right-hand threads so length can be adjusted without removing the rod.
Can a loose taper be reused with a new joint?
A damaged or enlarged mating taper can prevent correct seating and should be inspected before assembly.
Export Packing
Threads, tapered studs and the dust boot are individually protected; identification is kept visible for workshop receiving.
