Gibraltar 74363276 Double Threaded Stud 5/16-18 3 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 74363276 is an equal double threaded stud with a 5/16-18 thread size and a 3-inch overall length. It is machined from alloy steel and finished in black oxide for corrosion resistance. The stud features a Class 2A thread fit, indicating a standard external thread tolerance suitable for general fastening applications. Equal double threaded studs are used when a bolt head is not practical and both ends require threaded engagement. This part is installed by mechanics, millwrights, and maintenance technicians across industrial, HVAC equipment assembly, and mechanical service applications.

This stud is suited for equipment assembly and repair scenarios where a fixed threaded anchor point is required on both ends. Typical uses include securing components to machinery frames, mounting brackets, or panels where nuts are applied to both projecting ends. The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance in dry or low-moisture indoor environments. The alloy steel construction handles moderate tensile and shear loads appropriate to the 5/16-18 thread class.

Key Features

• Equal double threaded design — both ends share the same 5/16-18 thread specification
• Class 2A thread fit for standard external thread tolerance and reliable nut engagement
• Alloy steel construction for strength in mechanical fastening applications
• Black oxide finish for mild corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection
• 3-inch overall length provides consistent projection on both sides of a mounted component

Compatibility

Designed as a standard equal double threaded stud for general mechanical and industrial fastening applications requiring 5/16-18 thread engagement on both ends.

Installation Notes

Double threaded studs are typically installed by driving or threading one end into a tapped hole in the base component before securing the mating part with a nut on the exposed end. Ensure the receiving threads are clean and properly tapped to Class 2B tolerance to match the 2A stud. De-energize and lock out any equipment before performing fastener service on live machinery. Use appropriate torque values per the equipment manufacturer specifications for 5/16-18 hardware.
