Keystone Threaded Products KB016AG1A182840 Threaded Rod

Product Description

The KEYSTONE THREADED PRODUCTS KB016AG1A182840 is a general-purpose ACME threaded rod made from Grade B7 alloy steel. It measures 6 feet in overall length and features a right-hand, 2G-fit-class ACME thread profile. An oil finish protects the surface during storage and initial installation. Grade B7 alloy steel provides the tensile strength required for high-load fastening applications in industrial, mechanical, and structural assemblies. This rod is sized at 1-4 thread and is typically cut to length on the job. Licensed tradespeople and industrial assembly technicians are the primary installers.

This threaded rod suits general-purpose ACME applications where precise linear motion or high-load clamping is needed. Common installation environments include mechanical assemblies, industrial equipment, structural supports, and trade work requiring a robust fastening element. The ACME 2G thread fit class provides the clearance needed for smooth engagement under load, making it appropriate for power-transmission and jack-screw style assemblies as well as static fastening tasks.

Key Features

• Grade B7 alloy steel construction for high tensile strength in demanding fastening applications
• ACME thread profile with 2G fit class for reliable engagement and smooth linear-motion performance
• Right-hand thread direction for standard installation with conventional tooling
• Oil finish applied for corrosion protection during storage and handling
• 6-foot length provides flexibility for cutting to custom lengths on site
• General-purpose ACME Vernier classification suitable for a wide range of industrial and trade uses

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose ACME threaded rod for industrial and trade fastening assemblies requiring a 1-4 thread size, Grade B7 alloy steel, and a right-hand 2G-fit-class thread profile.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical or industrial tradespeople using standard cutting, threading, and torquing tools appropriate to the rod diameter. Always de-energize and lock out any machinery before installing or replacing threaded rods in mechanical assemblies. Cut the rod to the required length using a suitable metal saw and clean the cut end before threading nuts or couplings. Follow applicable ASME or project specification requirements for fastener torque and engagement length.
