Keystone Threaded Products KB016AG1A182845 Threaded Rod

Product Description

The KEYSTONE THREADED PRODUCTS KB016AG1A182845 is a 6-foot alloy steel threaded rod in a 1-5 ACME thread form, rated to material grade B7. It uses a right-hand, 2G fit class thread and carries an oil finish for corrosion inhibition during storage and handling. This rod is a general-purpose ACME-profile fastener suited for power transmission, jack screw, and linear motion applications in mechanical, HVAC structural, plumbing support, and industrial assembly work. At 14.4 pounds, the rod delivers the mass and material strength expected of B7 alloy steel in demanding service environments.

This threaded rod is intended for trade and industrial applications where ACME thread form is specified over standard V-thread fasteners. Typical uses include jacking assemblies, lead screw mechanisms, pipe hanger and support fabrication, equipment mounting, and structural fastening in commercial and industrial construction. The 6-foot length allows field cutting to required lengths using standard threading or cutting equipment. Licensed mechanical contractors, millwrights, pipefitters, and structural installers are the primary users of this rod in both new construction and retrofit applications.

Key Features

• 1-5 ACME thread profile for power transmission and general-purpose linear motion use
• Grade B7 alloy steel construction for high tensile strength and durability
• Right-hand thread direction, 2G fit class for standard ACME mating hardware
• Oil finish applied to inhibit corrosion during storage and transit
• 6-foot overall length allows field cutting to project-specific dimensions

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard ACME 2G-class mating nuts and hardware. Compatible with general-purpose ACME assemblies requiring a 1-5 thread size and right-hand thread direction in Grade B7 alloy steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed mechanical contractors, pipefitters, or millwrights. Power down or de-energize any adjacent equipment before cutting or installing threaded rod in live systems. Use appropriate thread cutting fluid and dies when trimming to length to maintain thread integrity. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes, including ASTM and project-specified torque standards, when final assembly is performed.
