<div> <font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The trick with NMP links is not to overtighten the screw thru the ball. The ball will compress slightly and cause them to bind if you do. They include a lock nut, so there is no need to overtighten them. I'm using them on the servo end of my rudder pull/pull on a couple of planes, and they work well and don't wear. I had the same issues until Troy Newman told me the trick. I like them as they are very light.</font><br>

<div id="yiv1602816903">I bought a bunch of them but found them to be too tight and not re-sizable like heli ball links.<br>
I do not think I would buy them again.<br>
