The KEYSTONE THREADED PRODUCTS KB016AC1D182845 is a Precision ACME threaded rod machined from Grade B7 alloy steel. It measures 6 feet in overall length and features a 1-5 thread size with a right-hand, single-start thread form. The 2C fit class indicates a standard ACME clearance tolerance suited for power transmission and linear motion applications. At 12.63 pounds, this rod is built for heavy-duty mechanical assemblies. Licensed machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians typically source this type of rod for fabricating or repairing lead screw assemblies, jack screws, and linear actuator components in industrial and commercial mechanical systems.
This threaded rod is used in applications requiring controlled linear motion or power transmission through an ACME thread form. The Precision ACME designation and 2C fit class make it appropriate for machinery, fixtures, and equipment where smooth engagement and repeatable positioning are required. It is commonly cut to length on-site using appropriate threading or cutting tools to fit specific assembly dimensions. Typical environments include manufacturing equipment, hydraulic and mechanical press assemblies, and custom fabrication projects.
Designed as a standard Precision ACME threaded rod for use in power transmission and linear motion assemblies requiring a 1-5 thread size, 2C fit class, and Grade B7 alloy steel material specification.
Installation of threaded rod in mechanical assemblies should be performed by a qualified millwright, machinist, or maintenance technician. De-energize and lock out all related mechanical and electrical systems before beginning work. Use proper thread engagement depth and appropriate ACME nuts rated for the same fit class and material grade to ensure correct load distribution. Cut to length using a metal cutting tool, then deburr thread ends before assembly to prevent cross-threading or binding.
