Value Collection 07166 Threaded Rod 1-8 Unc 6 Ft Alloy Steel B7

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 07166 is a general-purpose threaded rod cut to 6 feet in length and manufactured from Grade B7 alloy steel with a yellow zinc finish. Threaded rod of this type serves as continuous fastening stock for structural connections, pipe hangers, equipment mounting, and anchoring applications across mechanical and construction trades. The 1-8 UNC thread designation indicates a 1-inch nominal diameter with 8 threads per inch on a Unified National Coarse right-hand thread form. At 13.36 pounds, this full-length rod provides substantial fastening stock that can be cut to required lengths on the job.

This threaded rod is suited for residential and commercial mechanical installations including HVAC equipment support, pipe hanger assemblies, strut and channel framing systems, and general structural fastening. Plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC mechanics, and general contractors commonly use full-length threaded rod as field-cut stock when custom lengths are required. The Grade B7 alloy steel designation indicates elevated tensile and yield strength compared to standard mild steel rod, making it appropriate for higher-load applications.

Key Features

• Grade B7 alloy steel construction for elevated tensile and yield strength
• 1-8 UNC right-hand thread for compatibility with standard hex nuts and coupling nuts
• 6-foot overall length provides full-length stock for field cutting to custom dimensions
• Yellow zinc finish provides baseline corrosion resistance for indoor mechanical installations
• General-purpose rod type suitable for pipe hangers, equipment mounts, and structural anchoring

Compatibility

Designed as general-purpose 1-8 UNC threaded rod compatible with standard 1-inch hex nuts, coupling nuts, and threaded rod hardware conforming to UNC thread standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified mechanical, plumbing, or construction tradespeople following applicable building and mechanical codes. Cut to length using a hacksaw, reciprocating saw, or abrasive cutoff tool, and dress cut threads with a die before assembly to ensure full nut engagement. Verify load ratings of all associated hardware against the intended application before installation. Torque fasteners to values specified by the hardware manufacturer or applicable project specifications.
