Anderson Metals Corp 714014-06 Short Rod Nut 3/8 Inch

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 714014-06 is a 3/8 inch short rod nut sold in a 2-pack, designed for use in threaded rod and hanger rod assemblies common in plumbing, mechanical, and HVAC support applications. This fitting is lead free compliant and meets the requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it suitable for use in potable water systems where lead-free materials are required by code. The compact short-body design is intended for installations where thread engagement space is limited. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of hardware in both new construction and retrofit work.

Short rod nuts are used to terminate, couple, or anchor threaded rods in pipe hanger assemblies, strut channel systems, and mechanical support structures. They appear in residential and light commercial plumbing rough-in, hydronic piping support, and HVAC equipment rigging. The 2-pack quantity suits service calls and small jobs where only a limited number of fittings are needed on-site.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter as part of a pipe hanger or mechanical support assembly. Thread the rod nut onto 3/8 inch threaded rod by hand before tightening with an appropriate wrench to secure the fitting in place. Verify that all support hardware meets local building code load requirements before placing piping systems into service. Shut off and depressurize any active piping system before modifying adjacent support hardware.
