Product Introduction
F3401730 OEM-standard Quality High-strength Right Tie Rod Ball Joint for Lifan
Our F3401730 Right Tie Rod Ball Joint is a precision-engineered steering component critical for responsive handling and wheel alignment. It links the steering system to the wheel hub, transferring turning force while dampening road shocks and lateral loads—ensuring accurate tracking and stable cornering.
Forged from quenched high-strength steel and SAE J193-compliant heat-treated, it exceeds industry fatigue standards with a 500,000+ cycle lifespan (20% longer than average). ISO 9001-certified for consistency, this joint balances durability with easy installation, delivering reliable steering performance for daily driving. Designed to withstand wear, it keeps your vehicle’s steering system safe and responsive without compromising ride comfort.
Product Advantage
1. Premium Materials & Fatigue-Resistant Engineering
Forged from quenched high-strength steel and SAE J193-compliant heat-treated, this joint boasts a tensile strength of ≥800 MPa—outperforming generic alternatives by 15%. Rigorous cyclic testing confirms it survives 500,000+ operational cycles (20% longer than industry norms), resisting cracks from road impacts or lateral cornering forces. This foundation eliminates premature wear, ensuring long-term steering reliability.
2. Precision Machining for Flawless Steering Response
Machined to ±0.05mm tolerance, the joint aligns perfectly with steering linkage, minimizing play (<0.1° angular slack) and reducing steering wheel vibration. This tight fit improves wheel tracking accuracy—critical for stable cornering and eliminating "pulling" on uneven roads. No post-installation adjustments needed; it delivers factory-level responsiveness out of the box.
3. OEM-Spec Compatibility & Quick Installation
Engineered to match original equipment dimensions exactly, this right tie rod ball joint requires no adapters or modifications. It integrates seamlessly with existing steering systems, slashing installation time by 30% vs. non-OEM parts. Mechanics praise its "plug-and-play" design—saving labor costs and reducing error risk during repairs.
4. ISO 9001-Certified Quality Assurance
Every unit undergoes 100% dynamic load testing (simulating 10,000+ lbs of steering force) and material inspection. Our ISO 9001 facility enforces strict tolerances, ensuring zero defects in every shipment. Consistent performance batch after batch builds trust with your customers—key for repeat business in the automotive aftermarket.

Product Uses
Here are specific application scenarios of Ball Joint:
1. Daily Urban Commuting
Perfect for stop-and-go traffic, potholes, and speed bumps, this joint’s dual-lip seals block water/dirt—retaining lubrication for 500,000+ load cycles (SAE J193-tested). It slashes steering play (<0.1°), ensuring crisp, responsive turns on busy streets and cutting unscheduled maintenance for daily drivers. A trusted choice for commuters prioritizing low-cost, trouble-free steering.
2. High-Speed Highway Driving
Machined to ±0.05mm tolerance, it eliminates angular slack for rock-solid wheel alignment at 70+ mph. This prevents "wandering" on long hauls, boosting driver confidence and safety—critical for road-trippers or fleet vehicles relying on consistent, predictable steering feel at highway speeds.
3. Rough Off-Road Conditions
Tested in mud, gravel, and water, the SAE J193-quenched steel resists cracks from impacts. Its pressurized grease chamber retains lubrication 3x longer than standard joints, making it ideal for SUVs/trucks tackling uneven terrain without frequent rebuilds. Built to withstand abuse where others fail.
4. Commercial Fleet Operations
For taxi/delivery fleets logging 10k+ miles/month, this joint’s OEM-spec fit requires zero adjustments—slashing installation time by 30%. ISO 9001-certified consistency reduces downtime, while heavy-duty seals cut maintenance costs—perfect for high-utilization vehicles needing reliability.
Product Operate Guide
Ensure peak results: Clean mounting surfaces & check old parts for wear first. Apply high-temp grease to the joint, then install with a torque wrench (15-20 Nm, per SAE J193 specs)—no adapters needed for a factory-fit. Post-install, test drive for crisp steering & zero noise. For longevity, re-grease every 10k miles; our joint’s 500k+ cycle fatigue resistance (ASTM E466-tested) cuts downtime and keeps steering smooth.
