Keystone Threaded Products KL010AG1A182860 Threaded Rod

Product Description

The KEYSTONE THREADED PRODUCTS KL010AG1A182860 is a General Purpose ACME threaded rod measuring 6 feet in length with a 5/8-8 thread size. Manufactured from low-carbon steel Grade C1018 with an oil finish coating, this rod is designed for use in linear motion, power transmission, and clamping applications. The ACME thread form provides a strong, load-bearing profile suited to tasks that require controlled axial movement or structural fastening. Licensed plumbers, electricians, HVAC mechanics, and millwrights commonly use ACME threaded rod when fabricating equipment mounts, pipe hangers, and support assemblies.

This threaded rod is well suited for residential and light commercial construction and mechanical trades. It fits standard applications where a General Purpose ACME thread form is specified, including pipe hanger systems, equipment supports, HVAC unit mounting frames, and custom fabricated brackets. The right-hand thread direction and 2G fit class meet widely accepted tolerances for general mechanical assembly. At 6 feet in length, the rod can be cut to shorter segments as needed on the job site, reducing material waste and allowing multiple installations from a single piece.

Key Features

• 5/8-8 ACME thread profile delivers strong load-bearing capacity for power transmission and support applications
• Thread Fit Class 2G provides a general-purpose tolerance suitable for a broad range of mechanical assemblies
• Low-carbon steel Grade C1018 offers consistent machinability and good tensile strength for fabrication work
• Oil finish coating provides light corrosion inhibition during storage and installation
• Right-hand thread direction compatible with standard ACME nuts and fittings
• Full 6-foot length allows on-site cutting to multiple custom lengths from a single rod

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style General Purpose ACME threaded rod compatible with standard 5/8-8 ACME nuts, couplers, and fittings used in mechanical support and linear motion assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, or millwrights depending on the application. Cut to length using a metal-cutting saw or chop saw and dress the cut end with a thread file or die before assembly. Secure all fasteners and locknuts to prevent loosening under vibration. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes when using threaded rod in load-bearing hanger or support configurations.
