Inside MOOG® Compression-Loaded Ball Joints

Product Spotlight

An industry leader in the manufacturing of steering and suspension parts, MOOG® is always looking for the next design breakthrough. It is this continuous spirit of innovation that has earned MOOG the Problem Solver nickname. MOOG engineers have done it again with design enhancements to compression-loaded ball joints.

MOOG compression-loaded ball joints now include many new design enhancements like a patented integral dust boot and a patented bearing design. These features – along with an improved forged housing – increase strength and durability, extend service life, and improve ease of installation.

Advantages of MOOG’s Patented Integral Dust Boot

KEEPS CONTAMINATION OUT
Added sealing surface against mating part results in the boot sealing in two ways – one against the stud and one against the part – leaving no exposed stud after installation

MAINTAINS GREASE FLOW
Multiple passages assure proper grease flow (check valves installed on each passage)

PRE-INSTALLED FOR CONVENIENCE
Pre-installed dust boot saves installation time

BUILT TO LAST
Boot made from a TPU/polyurethane material for better tear, abrasion, flex cracking and impact resistance over common rubber materials

SECURE SEAL
Belleville spring integrated with boot for improved seal
