I have to make a steel rod eye and I'm wondering what is the best metal for the job?
90x140mm spherical plain bearing. The bearing boss eye is 190 mm OD. x 90mm wide. giving me a wall cross section of about 26mm
1045 or 4140 steel ?
The old eye was screwed to the rod end. the piston and rod are made from one piece of material.
