Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the 20-inch length of this control rod adjustable?
A: The PM-CR20 is a fixed-length 20-inch rod. It is designed to provide a rigid, deflection-resistant connection for long-reach linkage configurations where a consistent, direct feel is required.
Q: What type of hardware do I need for the 1/4-28 threading?
A: This rod is compatible with standard 1/4-28 rod ends or heim joints. Ensure your rod ends are properly threaded and secured with jam nuts to prevent vibration-induced loosening during racing.
Q: Why choose a black oxide steel rod over aluminum?
A: The black oxide steel core offers superior strength and rigidity compared to aluminum. This is critical for high-torque linkage setups, as it eliminates flex and ensures that your pedal inputs are transferred directly to the engine or braking system without mechanical lag.
Q: Can this control rod be cut to a shorter length?
A: While the rod is made of durable steel, it can be shortened if your specific chassis setup requires a custom length. However, ensure you have the proper tools to re-thread or clean the 1/4-28 ends after cutting to maintain a secure fit.
