Value Collection 03053 Threaded Rod 10-24 3 Ft Zinc Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03053 is a general-purpose threaded rod in a 10-24 UNC thread size, cut to a 3-foot overall length from low-carbon steel with a zinc finish coating. It carries a right-hand thread direction and meets ASTM A36 material grade standards. Threaded rods of this type are used by electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors to hang pipe, conduit, ductwork, strut channel, and mechanical equipment from structural supports. The zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for typical indoor commercial and light industrial environments.

This rod is suited for light-to-medium duty suspension and fastening applications in residential and commercial construction. Common uses include hanging threaded rod hanger assemblies, beam clamps, all-thread strut fittings, and similar hardware. At 10-24 thread size it is most common in lighter-load suspension systems, light electrical conduit hangers, and small mechanical equipment mounts. No welding or field threading is required at installation.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC thread form for broad hardware compatibility
• 3-foot length suits standard bay spacing without field cutting in many applications
• Low-carbon steel, ASTM A36 material grade for consistent tensile and yield properties
• Right-hand thread direction compatible with standard nuts, couplers, and hanger hardware
• Zinc finish coating for basic corrosion protection in dry and semi-protected environments
• General-purpose designation covers HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and structural hanging applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose threaded rod compatible with standard 10-24 UNC nuts, couplings, beam clamps, strut fittings, and pipe hanger hardware used in mechanical, electrical, and plumbing installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians, plumbers, or HVAC mechanics following applicable NEC, IPC, or IMC support spacing requirements for the system being hung. Cut to length using a reciprocating saw, hacksaw, or abrasive cutoff tool and chase the cut end with a die to restore clean thread profile before installing hardware. Always verify that the selected rod diameter and material grade meet the load requirements of the hanging application before installation.
