Keystone Threaded Products KL024AG1A091440 Acme Threaded Rod

Product Description

The KEYSTONE THREADED PRODUCTS KL024AG1A091440 is a general-purpose ACME threaded rod measuring 3 feet in length with a 1-1/2-4 thread size. Manufactured from Grade C1018 low-carbon steel with an oil finish coating, this rod features a right-hand, 2G fit class ACME thread profile. ACME threads are designed for power transmission and linear motion applications, providing greater load-carrying capacity and easier engagement than standard V-form threads. Weighing 15.12 pounds, it is suited for heavy-duty mechanical assemblies where reliable thread engagement and material strength are required. Licensed tradespeople in mechanical, industrial, and facilities maintenance settings typically specify this type of rod.

This threaded rod is appropriate for use in industrial machinery, mechanical actuators, jack screws, conveyor systems, and structural support assemblies that require ACME-form power transmission threading. The 2G fit class designates a general-purpose tolerance, making it compatible with standard ACME nuts and coupling hardware produced to the same specification. The oil finish provides a light corrosion inhibitor for storage and initial installation. It is commonly sourced by millwrights, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working on mechanical drive or lifting systems.

Key Features

• ACME general-purpose thread form rated for power transmission and linear motion applications
• 1-1/2-4 thread size with right-hand thread direction
• 2G fit class for standard ACME tolerance and easy mating with compatible nuts
• Grade C1018 low-carbon steel construction for reliable machinability and strength
• Oil finish coating provides light corrosion protection during storage and handling
• 3-foot overall length at 15.12 pounds for substantial material volume per piece

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 2G-class ACME nuts and couplings machined to 1-1/2-4 ACME thread specifications. No specific OEM model compatibility was stated in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by millwrights, machinists, or maintenance mechanics using standard threading tools and lathe or cut-off equipment as needed. De-energize and lock out all equipment before installing or replacing threaded rod components in any powered assembly. Ensure mating ACME nuts match the 2G fit class and 1-1/2-4 thread size before assembly to avoid cross-threading or binding. Consult applicable industry standards and facility safety protocols when integrating threaded rod into structural or load-bearing applications.
