Value Collection 07073 Threaded Rod 1/4-20 3 Ft Alloy Steel B7

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 07073 is a general-purpose threaded rod designed for fastening, anchoring, and structural assembly applications across mechanical, construction, and industrial trades. It features a 1/4-20 UNC thread specification with right-hand thread direction and measures 3 feet in overall length. Manufactured from alloy steel to material grade B7, this rod carries a yellow zinc finish coating that provides baseline corrosion resistance in moderate environments. Electricians, pipefitters, HVAC installers, and general contractors rely on this type of all-thread rod for hanging pipe, conduit, duct, and equipment from structural members.

This threaded rod is suited for residential and light commercial installations where a 1/4-20 UNC fastening solution is required. Common applications include suspended ceiling support systems, conduit hangers, duct rod hangers, equipment mounting, and general structural fastening. The 3-foot length allows field cutting to specific drop lengths. Grade B7 alloy steel provides higher tensile strength than standard mild steel rod, making it appropriate for higher-load hanging applications within its rated diameter range.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC thread specification for broad hardware compatibility
• Right-hand thread direction for standard nut and coupling engagement
• Grade B7 alloy steel construction for elevated tensile strength
• Yellow zinc finish coating for moderate corrosion resistance
• 3-foot length suitable for field cutting to required drop or span
• General-purpose rod type for hanging, anchoring, and fastening tasks

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose threaded rod compatible with standard 1/4-20 UNC nuts, couplings, strut channel hardware, and pipe hanger assemblies used in mechanical, electrical, and construction applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians, pipefitters, plumbers, or HVAC mechanics depending on the application. Cut to length using an appropriate rod cutter or hacksaw, and deburr cut ends before threading on hardware. Ensure all hanging loads are within the rated capacity for 1/4-20 B7 alloy steel rod at the intended span. Reference applicable codes such as NEC, IPC, or SMACNA guidelines for supported system spacing and load requirements.
