Compatibility and Fitment
It attaches to cables with 10-32 UNF female ends and mates with matching studs on control levers. Before you install, verify the thread form, check alignment, and ensure the joint can travel freely through full linkage motion. Lock the nut firmly and test for smooth operation.
Compliance and Safety
Use this component strictly for control linkages—not for load or structural use. After fitting, retighten the locknut and recheck that the quick-release sleeve fully engages. Inspect periodically for wear, corrosion, or looseness, and replace the joint if the socket feels slack.
Marine Applications
Mechanics, riggers, and boat owners select the Ball Joint 3/16 Quick Release Stainless for outboards, sterndrives, or inboard systems. Because it allows fast disconnection, service and engine removal become easier. Its stainless design suits saltwater conditions while preserving accurate control motion.
