Gibraltar 40712G Equal Double Threaded Stud 1/2-13 7 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 40712G is an equal double threaded stud with a 1/2-13 thread size and a 7-inch overall length. Double-ended studs like this one provide threaded engagement on both ends, eliminating the need for a bolt head in applications where access is limited or a flush, headless fastener is required. This stud is manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish and meets Grade 5 and Thread Fit Class 50 specifications. The flat feature confirms this part includes a wrench flat for installation torque. Electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical trades use studs of this type in equipment mounting, panel assembly, and structural fastening applications.

This stud is suited for use in equipment panels, mechanical assemblies, HVAC unit mounting, plumbing fixture support, and electrical enclosure hardware. The 1/2-13 thread is a standard coarse-thread UNC profile, widely used in trade and industrial applications. The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection in service environments. The equal-length threaded ends make this stud interchangeable from either side, useful in symmetric clamping or through-bolt applications.

Key Features

• Equal double threaded design with 1/2-13 UNC thread on both ends
• 7-inch overall length suits medium-span mounting and assembly tasks
• Alloy steel construction with Grade 5 material rating for reliable tensile strength
• Black oxide finish for mild corrosion resistance and low-glare appearance
• Thread Fit Class 50 for consistent thread engagement
• Includes flat for wrench engagement during installation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2-13 UNC equal double threaded stud suitable for general mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical equipment assembly applications where a Grade 5 alloy steel fastener is specified.

Installation Notes

Install using an appropriately sized open-end or adjustable wrench on the wrench flat. De-energize and lock out any equipment before installing or removing studs in electrical or mechanical assemblies. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize compound as required by the application to prevent galling on alloy steel threads. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer torque guidance for the specific assembly.
