FK Rod Ends secures a partnership with the Carolina Clash Super Late Model Series for the Skyler Trull Memorial on Saturday, March 12. "FK Rod Ends is the industry leader in bearings and rod end products" said Alex Cummings, Director of Marketing and Public Relations for the Carolina Clash. "FK is a wonderful company that produces top quality products that I know the drivers in the Carolina Clash will greatly appreciate. The Carolina Clash strives to put the best products in the industry into our driver's hands on a weekly basis".

For the Skyler Trull Memorial, FK Rod Ends will be donating a full set of 4130 high grade rod ends to the last finishing driver in the feature event. For example, if 14 cars finish the race, the last finishing driver would be the 14th place finisher, that driver would then receive the award. The award will be called the "FK Rod Ends Last Car Running Award".

FK Rod Ends has also stepped it up and will be presenting the same award to the NDRA Crate Late Models and the NDRA MODZ. Both NDRA divisions will be in heat race action on Friday and Saturday will be their feature events.

"FK Rod Ends has really hit a home run with this partnership deal for the Skyler Trull Memorial" said Larry Lee, Jr. Carolina Clash Series Owner.

Maria from FK Rod Ends will be present on Saturday evening at Carolina Speedway to present the awards to the perspective winners. All winners will have their photos taken with the award.

With the FK Rod Ends partnership, the Carolina Clash Contingency Award Program for the Skyler Trull Memorial is now up to $3,250 along with the $4,000 to win cash purse.

F.K. Bearings came onto the scene quietly over 24 years ago. They did not make a huge splash, but quickly won the customers over with fair pricing, and plenty of inventory. While the industrial market struggled to get product from the old stand-bys, the racing market embraced a supplier that would maintain inventory throughout the limited season. Recently, to further assure timely delivery, F.K. Bearing set up two regional warehouses. Filled to the brim with inventory, these warehouses can offer localized service for emergency orders.

Over the years the F.K. Bearings product line has grown to encompass many different industries. From the wilds of Baja Mexico, to the "good old boys" of NASCAR....from mowers to care for your lawn, to fitness equipment to groom your body, you'll find F.K. Rod Ends! In your hands is our latest offering in an evolving program designed to supply rod end products to users everywhere! You will find rod ends and spherical bearings made from mild steel, chromemoly/alloy steel, aluminum, and stainless. Special care is taken during every step of the manufacturing process to insure you the highest quality products.

With almost 10,000 combinations of rod ends and spherical bearings available, you will appreciate the effort goes into filling each order. Within our state-of-the-art facility, we carefully craft our products, so we are able to say, "Yes, it's in stock" when you call.
