Value Collection 10749 Threaded Rod 1/4-20 6 Ft Black Oxide

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 10749 is a 1/4-20 general-purpose threaded rod cut to a full 6-foot length, manufactured from medium-carbon steel with a black oxide finish. Threaded rod of this type provides a continuous fastening surface along its entire length, allowing contractors and tradespeople to cut it to any required dimension on site. The UNC thread form and right-hand direction conform to standard inch fastener conventions, making it compatible with common hex nuts, coupling nuts, and threaded inserts found in everyday mechanical, structural, and utility applications. Weighing approximately 0.75 pounds per piece, this rod is lightweight enough for single-person handling.

This threaded rod is suited for a wide range of trade and light industrial applications including HVAC duct hanger systems, pipe support strut assemblies, electrical conduit and wireway supports, and general mechanical fastening. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general contractors routinely use 1/4-20 all-thread rod to fabricate custom-length hanger assemblies or secure equipment to overhead framing. The black oxide finish provides a degree of corrosion resistance for dry or mildly humid indoor environments.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC thread form — compatible with standard inch nuts, couplers, and threaded inserts
• Right-hand thread direction for use with all standard right-hand threaded fasteners
• Full 6-foot length allows on-site cutting to exact required dimensions
• Medium-carbon steel construction for solid mechanical strength in general-purpose applications
• Black oxide finish offers moderate corrosion resistance in indoor or dry environments

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose threaded rod compatible with standard 1/4-20 UNC hex nuts, coupling nuts, and threaded fastening hardware used in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical support applications.

Installation Notes

Cut to length using a hacksaw, reciprocating saw, or abrasive cutoff wheel rated for steel stock. Thread a nut onto the rod before cutting and run it past the cut point afterward to clean up any burrs on the thread end. Support hangers and trapeze assemblies should be installed per applicable local mechanical and building codes. No power tools are required for hand assembly with standard wrenches or nut drivers.
