threaded rods can be purchased as separate components
or together as a linkage assembly. The advantages of
purchasing an assembly rather than separate parts
include:
¤ Reduced SKUs & Supplier Management –
Purchasing separate components, such as spherical
rod ends, rods and fasteners requires management of
separate SKUs and suppliers. Triangle’s rod end linkage
assembly results in one managed SKU and one supplier.
¤ Eliminate Time on Assembly – Triangle’s rod

the opportunity to supply rods for other application
needs as well.
5/16-24 and 3/8-24 are our popular thread sizes,
but we can also supply rods that range from ¼” to
7/16”. They are available in low carbon steel, stainless
steel and aluminum. Rod lengths can vary from 4” to 48”
Custom options for Triangle Manufacturing’s rods
include rod bending, wrench flats, flattening ends and drilling
mount holes, plating options, adding springs and more.
Common applications that use Triangle’s rods and
rod end linkage assemblies include: solar trackers,
zero-turn ad stand-behind lawn mowers, production
equipment, light-duty vehicles and HVAC louvers.
