Gibraltar 74363904 Equal Double Threaded Stud 1-8 Thread 8 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 74363904 is an equal double threaded stud with a 1-8 thread size and an overall length of 8 inches. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this stud provides corrosion resistance and durability in demanding fastening applications. The 2A thread fit class ensures consistent thread tolerance for reliable mating with standard 1-8 nuts and tapped components. Threaded the full length on both ends in equal proportions, it is suited for through-bolt and tension-rod configurations where a stud must engage two components simultaneously. Electricians, pipefitters, millwrights, and general industrial tradespeople commonly install this type of fastener in structural and mechanical assemblies.

This equal double threaded stud is intended for industrial and commercial fastening applications where alloy steel strength and a black oxide surface treatment are required. Typical uses include machinery mounting, equipment frames, pipe hanger assemblies, and structural connections. The 1-8 coarse thread profile is one of the most common heavy fastener thread standards, making this stud compatible with widely available hardware across industrial and trade settings. It ships as a single piece with a minimum order quantity of one unit.

Key Features

• Equal double threaded design with identical thread length on both ends for symmetrical fastening
• 1-8 coarse thread size suits standard heavy-duty nuts and tapped components
• 8-inch overall length accommodates thick material stacks and through-bolt applications
• Alloy steel construction provides higher tensile strength than standard carbon steel fasteners
• Black oxide finish offers mild corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection
• Class 2A thread fit ensures consistent tolerance and reliable engagement

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1-8 hex nuts, coupling nuts, and tapped holes conforming to ASME B1.1 Unified Inch Screw Thread specifications. Suitable as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fastener in industrial, mechanical, and structural assemblies requiring a 1-8 coarse thread double-end stud.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by millwrights, pipefitters, or maintenance technicians using standard open-end or box wrenches and appropriate thread lubricant or anti-seize compound. Power down and de-energize any associated equipment before installing or removing threaded fasteners in electrical or mechanical enclosures. Do not exceed the rated torque range for the fastener grade and thread class when applying nuts. Inspect threads for damage or contamination before installation to ensure full engagement and proper clamping force.
