More Information
Summary:A ball joint with a ball stud (2) which has a spherical bearing area (3), which with the bearing area (3) is fitted and can move by sliding within a ball socket (4). The ball socket (4) is arranged in an opening (5) of a holder (6) and, with a solid body (12), is formed by injection-molding a material, which solidifies, around the ball socket (4) and the holder (6). The ball stud (2) projects outward, in an axial direction (11), from the holder (6). An axial retainer for the ball stud (2), which axially engages with the ball socket (4) and is encapsulated by the injection-molded material, is provided in the solid body (12).
