Gator RC 3mm Brass Ball Link Set – White (5-Pack with Hardware)

Upgrade your RC aircraft linkage system with the Gator RC 3mm Brass Ball Link Set. These precision-engineered brass ball links are designed to deliver smooth, completely slop-free control surface movement. Each package includes five complete ball link assemblies fully bundled with black socket machine screws, 2mm brass standoff washers, and specialized 2mm all-metal aluminum locking nuts for a secure installation in demanding flight applications.

The pre-installed brass swivel ball allows multi-axis movement while reducing binding and friction throughout the control system. Whether you're flying aerobatic aircraft, giant scale models, EDF jets, gas airplanes, or turbine-powered aircraft, these ball links provide reliable control surface movement and long-term durability.

🚀 Target Applications:

  • Giant Scale Aircraft & IMAC Airplanes
  • Gas-Powered Models & Turbine Jets
  • EDF Jets & Large-Scale Electric Warbirds
  • Sport Aircraft & Precision Aerobatic Models
⚠ Thread & Arm Compatibility Note: Sized precisely to thread directly onto standard 3mm turnbuckles and 3mm pushrods. The included M2 x 14mm mounting hardware, matching 2mm standoffs, and 2mm nuts create a seamless, unified mechanical fitment with many popular Gator RC and Secraft servo arms sold here.

Key Features

  • Slop-Free Articulation: High-quality brass ball inserts allow free multi-axis pivot movement, entirely eliminating mechanical binding throughout the flight envelope.
  • Unified 2mm Metric Hardware: Standardizes your mounting track with perfectly matched M2 x 14mm screws, 2mm brass standoffs, and 2mm all-metal nuts.
  • All-Metal Lock Nuts: Five included 2mm aluminum locking hex nuts utilize mechanical interference instead of nylon inserts. They will never break down or melt near hot gas engine cylinder heads or turbine exhaust systems.
  • Engineered Spacing: Beveled 2mm brass standoff washers create crucial workspace clearance beneath the swivel ball so the nylon housing can tilt without rubbing your servo arms or control horns.
  • Heavy-Duty Machine Fasteners: Ships bundled with matching M2 x 14mm black steel socket head cap screws to handle intense vibration and aerodynamic pushrod stress.
  • Complete Workbench Bundle: Pack contains five completely independent ball link assemblies, allowing you to overhaul multiple control surfaces from a single card.

⚙️ Mechanical Installation Benefits:

Using high-grade ball links is critical for maintaining an aircraft's tracking accuracy and preserving servo gear life:

  • Reduces Servo Strain: True multi-axis rotation prevents off-axis twisting forces from transferring into your servo's main output shaft.
  • Protects Control Horns: Beveled 2mm brass standoffs cleanly isolate the nylon bodies away from the direct mounting flange surfaces.
  • Vibration Defense: All-metal 2mm aluminum locking threads stay securely clamped through relentless gas outrunner and twin-cylinder vibration profiles.

💡 Modeler’s Tips

When threading the white nylon socket onto a 3mm metal turnbuckle or rod, screw it on straight to avoid cross-threading the internal plastic channels. When completing final linkages on aggressive giant-scale surface lines, always use a small drop of blue medium-strength thread locker on the M2 machine screw before snugging down the all-metal 2mm aluminum lock nut for ultimate peace of mind.
