Value Collection 05176 Threaded Rod 1-1/8-7 Unc 6 Ft Grade B7

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 05176 is a full-length general-purpose threaded rod machined from Grade B7 alloy steel with a plain finish. At 6 feet long and cut to a 1-1/8-7 UNC thread pitch, it provides structural holding strength for heavy bolted assemblies, pipe hangers, anchor systems, and industrial frameworks. The right-hand thread engages standard hex nuts and couplers without modification. Weighing 16.8 pounds, the rod is suited for load-bearing applications where high tensile and yield strength are required. Plumbers, pipefitters, electricians, and mechanical contractors reach for Grade B7 all-thread when code or engineering specs call for high-strength fastener stock.

This rod is used across commercial and industrial construction for suspending pipe, conduit, duct, and equipment from overhead structure. Common applications include threaded rod hanger assemblies, seismic bracing runs, flange stud fabrication, and general bolted connections in mechanical rooms and process piping. The 6-foot length allows field cutting to required lengths with standard die or saw equipment. It is well suited to high-temperature or high-stress service environments where mild steel all-thread is undersized for the application.

Key Features

• Grade B7 alloy steel construction for high tensile and yield strength
• 1-1/8-7 UNC thread pitch — right-hand, compatible with standard nuts and couplers
• 6-foot overall length for field cutting to required dimensions
• Plain finish — suitable for painting, coating, or use as-delivered
• General-purpose rod profile fits standard hanger hardware and strut fittings

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose threaded rod for use with standard 1-1/8-7 UNC hex nuts, couplings, and hanger hardware in mechanical, plumbing, and electrical suspension assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by pipefitters, electricians, or mechanical contractors following applicable building and mechanical codes. Cut to length using a reciprocating saw, band saw, or abrasive cutoff wheel, then chase threads at the cut end with a matching die before assembly. Wear appropriate PPE when cutting alloy steel rod. Confirm nut and coupling grade ratings are compatible with Grade B7 rod before torquing connections in structural or load-bearing applications.
