Looked very good quality, but be advised this is NOT the correct rod end for Sonex.

Of the eight I ordered one had poor tolerances and was as loose as the ones I removed. Otherwise, they seem to be very good quality.

Q: How do you tell the difference between the male threaded end and the female internal threaded end for these Aurora bearings? I am a Sonex builder and need the female parts to thread onto the male rod ends for the ailerons and flaps.

We have added a column to the product table which calls out male or female thread. Please review it on the web page.

Q: What is the thread diameter (in inches) of P/N MM-2?

.1380-32 UNC thread

Q: Do these come with locknuts?

No the nuts are not included.
