Gibraltar 74363516 Equal Double Threaded Stud 1/2-13 6 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 74363516 is an equal double threaded stud with a 1/2-13 UNC thread profile and an overall length of 6 inches. Both ends carry the same thread size, making it suited for symmetrical fastening applications where a bolt head is not practical or desired. The alloy steel construction with a black oxide finish provides corrosion resistance and surface hardness appropriate for industrial and mechanical assembly work. Thread fit is Class 2A, the standard external thread tolerance class for general-purpose fastening. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians typically install this stud in structural, mechanical, or equipment-mounting applications.

This stud is used in residential and commercial mechanical assemblies where through-bolting or dual-nut clamping is required. Common install scenarios include equipment mounting, pipe support systems, and bracket fabrication in HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical trades. The equal-end configuration means both threaded sections accept standard 1/2-13 nuts without any orientation concern during assembly.

Key Features

• Equal double threaded ends — both ends carry the same 1/2-13 UNC thread for symmetrical fastening
• Alloy steel construction for high tensile strength in demanding mechanical applications
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection
• Class 2A thread fit — standard external tolerance class for general-purpose fastener interchangeability
• 6-inch overall length suits a range of through-mount and standoff applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose equal double threaded stud compatible with standard 1/2-13 UNC nuts and threaded inserts used across mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and industrial assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical and maintenance technicians using standard open-end, box, or socket wrenches sized for 1/2-13 fasteners. Power down or de-energize any equipment before installing or removing studs in proximity to electrical components. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize compound where dissimilar metals or corrosive environments are present. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for torque and clamping requirements relevant to the specific assembly.
