Value Collection 07096 3/8-16 Threaded Rod 6 Ft Alloy Steel B7

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 07096 is a general-purpose threaded rod designed for fastening, hanging, and anchoring applications across mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and structural trades. Manufactured from Grade B7 alloy steel with a yellow zinc finish, this rod offers corrosion resistance and high tensile strength suited for demanding installation environments. The 3/8-16 UNC thread profile runs the full 6-foot length with a right-hand thread direction, making it compatible with standard UNC nuts and couplers. At 1.752 pounds, it is manageable for a single installer and can be field-cut to length as needed.

This threaded rod is used in a wide range of trade applications including pipe hanging, electrical conduit support, HVAC equipment mounting, strut system assemblies, and general structural fastening. It is commonly installed in both residential and commercial construction settings. Mechanical contractors, electricians, plumbers, and pipefitters regularly use full-length threaded rod as a primary support component in suspended ceiling grids, trapeze hangers, and anchor bolt assemblies.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or new-installation threaded rod compatible with standard 3/8-16 UNC nuts, couplers, threaded inserts, and strut channel hardware used across mechanical, electrical, and plumbing support systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed mechanical, electrical, or plumbing contractors depending on the application. Always de-energize or depressurize any system before attaching support hardware. Use a reciprocating saw, hacksaw, or abrasive cutoff wheel to trim rod to length; dress cut threads with a die before installing nuts. Consult applicable codes including NEC, IPC, and IFGC for required hanger spacing and load ratings.
