Value Collection 220938 Threaded Rod 1/4-20 Grade 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 220938 is a general-purpose threaded rod made from Grade 316 stainless steel, sized at 1/4-20 UNC with a right-hand thread direction. At 72 inches in overall length and weighing 0.742 pounds, this rod is suited for HVAC hanging applications, pipe support systems, electrical conduit support, and other trade installations where corrosion resistance is critical. The plain finish and continuous thread profile allow the rod to be cut to any required length in the field, making it a flexible fastening component for a wide range of commercial and industrial projects.

This threaded rod is used in residential and commercial mechanical, electrical, and plumbing installations. Common applications include suspended equipment hangers, strut channel assemblies, pipe trapeze supports, and anchor bolt assemblies. The Grade 316 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with elevated moisture exposure, chemical contact, or coastal conditions where standard carbon steel would corrode prematurely.

• 72 inches overall length allows field cutting to required dimensions
• Plain finish with no coating to interfere with thread engagement
• General-purpose rod type suitable across HVAC, plumbing, and electrical support applications
• Lightweight at 0.742 pounds for easy handling and transport on the job

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/4-20 UNC nuts, couplers, washers, and threaded inserts in general-purpose fastening and support assemblies across trade applications.

Installation Notes

Threaded rod installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, or electricians during equipment support and hanger assembly work. Cut the rod to length using a reciprocating saw, hacksaw, or rod cutter, and chase the cut end with a thread die before installing hardware. Follow applicable support spacing requirements as outlined in SMACNA, IPC, or NEC guidelines depending on the system being supported. Always verify load ratings of associated hardware before finalizing hanger assemblies.
