Measuring 3\/8-16 inches in diameter by 24 inches in length, this rod features UNC coarse threads and meets ASTM A37 Grade A standards with a minimum tensile strength of 6 KSI. The zinc finish provides corrosion resistance for both indoor and light-duty outdoor installations. Each package contains 5 rods, making it practical for multi-point installations or jobs requiring consistent hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis threaded rod is suited for residential and light commercial applications where HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems require threaded fasteners for hanging pipe, duct work, conduit, or equipment supports. The rod can be drilled, cut, heated, and shaped on the job site, giving installers flexibility when working within tight framing or irregular structural conditions. It is commonly used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and electricians for trapeze hangers, threaded inserts, and mechanical anchoring assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 UNC coarse thread profile for broad compatibility with standard nuts and couplings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e24-inch length with field-cuttable, drillable, and shapeable zinc construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASTM A37 Grade A with minimum tensile strength of 6 KSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc plating provides corrosion resistance for general-purpose mechanical installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a 5-pack for multi-point or multi-unit service calls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose UNC coarse-thread fastener rod for use with standard 3\/8-16 threaded nuts, couplers, and hardware in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical support applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis rod is typically installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, or electricians in compliance with applicable mechanical and building codes.
