Gibraltar ST2-45-G Double Threaded Stud 1/2-13 4.5 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR ST2-45-G is an equal double threaded stud with a 1/2-13 thread size and an overall length of 4.5 inches. It is machined from 1117 carbon steel and finished in black oxide for basic corrosion resistance. The stud features both left-hand and right-hand thread directions, making it suitable for applications that require bidirectional fastening. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general mechanical contractors use this type of fastener when connecting threaded components at both ends of a single stud body.

This stud is used in mechanical and structural fastening applications where a fixed, threaded anchor point is needed between two threaded assemblies. Common install scenarios include equipment mounting, pipe hanger assemblies, pump and motor bracketing, and general structural connections in trade environments. The equal thread design means both ends carry the same 1/2-13 thread specification, simplifying nut and coupling selection on both sides of the joint.

Key Features

• Equal double threaded design with left and right thread directions on a single body
• 1/2-13 thread size on both ends for consistent fastener selection
• 4.5 inch overall length suits medium-depth fastening requirements
• 1117 carbon steel construction provides good machinability and strength
• Black oxide finish offers mild corrosion resistance in dry or low-moisture environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2-13 double threaded stud for use with compatible nuts, couplings, and threaded inserts in mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical equipment mounting applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading one end into a tapped hole or coupling and securing the opposite end with a nut or mating threaded component. Use appropriately rated wrenches and follow applicable torque guidelines from the equipment manufacturer or relevant code. Black oxide finish is not rated for outdoor or high-moisture exposure without additional protection. Inspect threads for damage before installation to ensure full engagement and joint integrity.
