MOOG K500166 Ball Joint with Greaseable Socket

The MOOG K500166 Ball Joint is designed for durability and performance, featuring a metal-to-metal design that enhances strength and allows grease to flow through the bearing surface, reducing friction and extending the product's lifespan. This ball joint includes a greaseable socket that helps to minimize corrosion and wear by flushing out contaminants, while a pre-installed dust boot protects the socket components from dirt and water. The heat-treated ball studs meet or exceed original equipment requirements, ensuring improved fatigue strength and preventing premature failure. • Metal to metal design provides strength and allows grease to flow through bearing surface for reduced friction and long life • Ball studs are heat treated to match or exceed OE requirements to inhibit premature failure and improve fatigue strength • Greaseable socket reduces corrosion and wear by allowing new lubricant to flush contaminants • Pre-installed dust boot shields socket components from wear causing contaminants • Belleville preload washer helps keep the bearing package tight as bearings wear
