Precision pivot balls for suspension and steering

This Serpent SER402189 pivot ball set supplies four aluminium pivot balls intended for RC-scale suspension and steering pivot points. The parts are a direct match to the Medius X26 naming present in the product reference, and are intended for use on the referenced Medius X26 steel EP (SER400052) chassis configuration.

The components are supplied as machined aluminium pivot balls in a pack of 4 pcs, designed to replace or upgrade existing pivot joints where aluminium pivot balls are specified. In practical setup work they serve as the rotating contact in steering knuckles and suspension link mounts, where material choice affects wear characteristics and setup feel.

Installation notes: confirm the existing pivot housings and retaining hardware are compatible with aluminium balls, clean contact surfaces before assembly, and verify free rotation and secure retention at final torque settings. During tuning, swapping to aluminium pivot balls can slightly change friction and feedback compared with steel or composite alternatives, so re-check steering centering and toe settings after fitment.

For model builders working on a Medius X26, the SER402189 aluminium pivot balls provide a direct replacement or upgrade option; always inspect fit and movement after installation.

Aluminium typically reduces rotating mass at the contact point and can change wear patterns. Expect a slightly different friction feel and monitor wear during initial runs.
Not always, but verify that your current retainers and housings are compatible with aluminium balls and do not introduce undue clamping or binding.
Keep contact areas clean, check for burrs after installation, and inspect periodically for wear. Light lubrication may be applied if your setup calls for it, according to existing drivetrain practice.
They are supplied to match the Medius X26 reference, but always confirm dimensional fit against your chassis before final assembly.
