DU-BRO E-Z Connectors are designed to make control linkage setup simple, secure, and beginner-friendly. Whether you’re assembling a new RC airplane or fine-tuning an older model, E-Z Connectors give you a clean, adjustable, and dependable way to connect pushrods to servo arms. While they’re easy to install, it helps to understand the different styles available and how each one is best used.
Types of DU-BRO E-Z Connectors
DU-BRO offers a variety of E-Z Connector styles to fit different control systems, pushrod sizes, and model types. Here’s a quick guide to each:
1. Heavy Duty 4-40 E-Z Connectors
Built for large aircraft and high-load applications, these connectors handle bigger pushrods and stronger servos with ease. Perfect for giant-scale, aerobatic, or gas models.
2. Square-Loc Pushrod Connectors
Designed to eliminate slippage, the Square-Loc system “locks” onto pushrods securely—ideal for pilots who want maximum reliability and repeatability.
3. Kwik Grip E-Z Connectors
These connectors offer additional grip strength and slightly easier installation. Great for mid-sized sport airplanes or models where vibration is common.
4. Standard E-Z Connectors
The classic choice for general RC applications. Easy to install and widely used across trainers, park flyers, sport models, and more.
5. Mini E/Z Connectors
Perfect for micro and small models with limited control surface load. Lightweight and compact for precise, efficient linkage setups.

Important Note About Push Nuts
Each connector includes a push nut that secures it to the servo arm:
-
Metal push nuts → Permanent and non-reusable
-
Nylon push nuts → Reusable, but require a small tool and firm pressure to remove
Choosing the right push nut depends on whether you want a permanent setup or need the flexibility to adjust and reuse hardware.
Why E-Z Connectors Make RC Building Easier
E-Z Connectors are popular because they let hobbyists:
-
Make instant length adjustments
-
Achieve precise control surface alignment
-
Reduce slop and improve linkage efficiency
-
Install or remove rods without bending or re-bending wire
-
Maintain a clean, professional-looking control setup
For the smoothest results, pair them with high-quality DU-BRO components such as Safety Lock Kwik-Links or Swivel Ball Links.
Final Thoughts
No matter what size model you’re building, DU-BRO E-Z Connectors make linkage setup easier, faster, and more accurate. With several connector styles available, you can choose the perfect option for any application—from micro electrics to giant-scale gas aircraft.
