Tie Rod End Competition Engineering C6021 5/8″ Steel 14,480 lb

Description

Product Overview

The Competition Engineering C6021 tie rod end is engineered for demanding automotive applications where strength, precision, and durability are paramount. Constructed from raw steel, the rod end provides a solid foundation that resists deformation under heavy loads. A self lubricating Rilsan AZM30 liner is injected into the housing, creating a metal‑to‑metal contact when the component is loaded, yet eliminating rattling or squeaking when unloaded. The 5/8″ right‑hand thread and matching 5/8″ shank ensure a secure fit in a wide range of steering and suspension assemblies. With a load capacity of 14,480 lb, this component exceeds the requirements of most performance‑oriented vehicles, delivering confidence on both street and track.

Usage

This tie rod end is suited for high‑performance cars, race‑prepared vehicles, and heavy‑duty trucks that demand reliable steering response. It excels in applications such as aftermarket suspension upgrades, competition racing, and off‑road rigs where increased tensile strength and consistent lubrication are critical. The self‑sealing design reduces maintenance intervals, making it an excellent choice for enthusiasts who value both performance and convenience. Install the C6021 in any system that requires a 5/8″ right‑hand thread, and benefit from its robust construction during aggressive cornering, rapid acceleration, and demanding terrain.

FAQ

What vehicle types can use the C6021 tie rod end?

The C6021 is compatible with a broad range of vehicles that use a 5/8″ right‑hand thread, including sports cars, muscle cars, off‑road trucks, and race‑prepared machines. It is especially beneficial for applications that demand higher tensile strength and reliable lubrication.

How does the self‑lubricating liner work?

The Rilsan AZM30 liner is a polymer‑based material that adheres to the internal surfaces of the rod end. When the component is loaded, metal contacts metal for maximum strength, while the liner fills any gaps to prevent metal‑to‑metal wear and eliminates the need for external grease.

Is any special installation tool required?

Standard hand tools are sufficient for installing the C6021. A torque wrench is recommended to achieve the proper tightening specifications, which are provided in the product documentation.

What warranty does Competition Engineering provide?

Competition Engineering offers a limited warranty covering manufacturing defects for a period of one year from the date of purchase. Our support team is available to address any concerns and provide replacement parts if necessary.

Can the tie rod end be used in a racing environment?

Yes, the C6021 is designed to meet the rigorous demands of racing applications. Its high load capacity, durable steel construction, and self‑sealing liner make it an ideal choice for competitive motorsports where reliability and performance are critical.
