Hillman 11012 Threaded Rod 5/16-18 X 1 Inch Zinc

Product Description

The HILLMAN 11012 is a zinc-plated coarse-thread threaded rod measuring 5/16-18 x 1 inch, designed for use in a wide range of mechanical fastening applications. The rod is electroplated with zinc to produce a clean, bright finish that also provides corrosion resistance against rust. Threaded rods in this size and thread specification are standard fastening hardware used by plumbers, pipefitters, electricians, HVAC technicians, and general contractors for suspending, anchoring, and clamping assemblies. The coarse 18 threads-per-inch pitch makes installation straightforward and compatible with standard hex nuts and threaded couplings.

This threaded rod is suited for light-duty residential and commercial fastening tasks. Common applications include pipe hangers, anchor bolts, U-bolts, and clamps. It is a single-piece, 1-inch length rod, making it appropriate for short-span installations or as a cut-to-fit starting point in assemblies where a compact threaded section is needed. Trades working in mechanical rooms, utility chases, and overhead rough-in conditions will find this rod useful for standard hanger and support configurations.

Key Features

• Electroplated zinc finish provides rust resistance and a clean, bright appearance
• 5/16-18 coarse thread pitch for compatibility with standard nuts and couplings
• 1-inch length suits compact fastening and hanger applications
• Suitable for use in hangers, anchor bolts, U-bolts, and clamps
• Do not weld - electroplated finish is not weld-compatible

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 5/16-18 coarse-thread fastener compatible with matching hex nuts, coupling nuts, and threaded fittings conforming to that thread specification.

Installation Notes

This threaded rod is installed by plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, and general contractors using standard hand tools and wrenches. Always de-energize or shut off the relevant system before installing support hardware in active mechanical or electrical spaces. Do not weld this rod - electroplating is not compatible with welding processes and will release harmful fumes. Follow applicable local mechanical and building codes for hanger spacing and load requirements.
