Gibraltar 74363425 Equal Double Threaded Stud 1/2-13 2in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 74363425 is an equal double threaded stud with a 1/2-13 thread size and a 2-inch overall length. This fastener features threads on both ends of equal length, allowing it to be threaded into a fixed base on one end while accepting a nut or mating component on the other. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it offers solid mechanical strength and moderate corrosion resistance in typical indoor and industrial environments. Machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals install this type of stud where a permanent or semi-permanent threaded anchor point is required.

This stud is suited for general mechanical assembly, equipment mounting, and structural fastening applications where a standard 1/2-13 UNC thread pattern is called for. The Class 2A thread fit is the industry-standard tolerance class for externally threaded fasteners, providing reliable engagement with Class 2B internal threads. It is commonly used in HVAC equipment frames, pump and motor mounting, electrical enclosure hardware, and similar trade applications requiring a secure, removable connection point.

Key Features

• Equal double threaded design — identical thread length on both ends for symmetrical load distribution
• 1/2-13 UNC thread size with Class 2A fit for standard compatibility with 1/2-13 nuts and tapped holes
• Alloy steel construction for high tensile strength in mechanical fastening applications
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection in finished assemblies
• 2-inch overall length suits compact mounting configurations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2-13 UNC equal double threaded stud suitable for use in any application requiring a Class 2A external thread on both ends at 2 inches overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a stud driver or double-nut method to thread the stud into a tapped hole. De-energize and lock out all equipment before installing or replacing fasteners in live mechanical or electrical assemblies. Do not over-torque the stud into the base material, as alloy steel studs can seize or strip softer tapped holes. Verify thread engagement depth meets applicable engineering or equipment specifications before applying load.
