Hillman 11016 Threaded Rod 3/8-16 X 1 Inch Zinc Plated

Product Description

The HILLMAN 11016 is a zinc-plated coarse-thread threaded rod measuring 3/8-16 thread size at 1 inch in length. Manufactured with an electroplated zinc finish, it delivers a clean, bright appearance while providing corrosion resistance against rust. The electroplating process bonds zinc to the steel substrate, protecting the rod in typical indoor fastening applications. Licensed tradespeople and general contractors use this rod as a ready-to-install fastener component in a wide range of light-duty structural and mechanical assemblies. It ships as a single unit and is stocked for individual purchase.

This threaded rod is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a short, coarse-thread zinc-plated fastener is required. Common uses include hangers, anchor bolts, U-bolts, and clamps in plumbing, HVAC, and general construction assemblies. The 3/8-16 coarse thread pattern is a standard size that pairs with commonly available hex nuts, coupling nuts, and threaded inserts. It is appropriate for dry or semi-protected interior environments where the zinc finish provides adequate corrosion protection.

Key Features

• 3/8-16 coarse thread pattern for compatibility with standard hardware
• 1 inch length suits compact hanger and clamp installations
• Electroplated zinc finish resists rust and provides a bright, clean surface
• Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of one
• Do not weld — electroplated coating is not weld-compatible

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8-16 coarse-thread threaded rod for use with compatible hex nuts, coupling nuts, U-bolt assemblies, clamps, and threaded hanger hardware in plumbing, HVAC, and general construction applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with standard wrenches and does not require specialized tools. Do not weld this electroplated rod — heat from welding degrades the zinc coating and can release hazardous fumes. Verify thread engagement depth meets the load requirements of the assembly before final tightening. Follow applicable building and mechanical codes for fastener selection in structural or pipe-support applications.
