At 6 feet in overall length and weighing 1.751 pounds, it delivers a full-length fastening solution suited for continuous load distribution across structural, mechanical, and plumbing support applications. The plain finish retains the natural corrosion resistance of 316 stainless, making it well suited for wet or chemically active environments. Plumbers, HVAC installers, and electricians reach for this rod when hanging pipe, conduit, duct, or equipment supports where stainless is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis threaded rod sees common use in residential and commercial mechanical rooms, process piping installations, marine environments, and any application where chloride or moisture exposure would compromise carbon steel hardware. It is used with standard 3\/8-16 hex nuts, coupling nuts, rod hangers, and strut channel fittings. Because the full 6-foot length can be cut to size on the job, a single rod covers multiple hanger locations along a run of pipe or conduit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 316 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet, coastal, and chemically active environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 UNC thread profile mates with standard inch-series nuts and fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction for conventional tightening with standard tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-foot length can be cut to required hanger or support lengths in the field\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlain finish preserves natural stainless oxide layer without added coatings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.751 pounds per rod — lightweight for a full 6-foot stainless piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 3\/8-16 UNC inch-series threaded hardware including hex nuts, coupling nuts, rod-end hangers, clevis hangers, and strut channel nuts in general-purpose mechanical, plumbing, HVAC, and electrical support applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThreaded rod is installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC mechanics, and electricians working to IPC, IMC, or NEC hanger spacing requirements depending on the supported system. Cut to length with a hacksaw or abrasive cutoff wheel rated for stainless steel, then chase the cut end with a die to restore thread profile before assembly. Use two nuts or a locking nut at each connection point to prevent loosening under vibration. Always de-energize or depressurize supported systems before servicing adjacent hangers and supports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 72 inches (6 feet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.751 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161618\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 220960\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696382673202,"sku":"220960","price":46.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/792935021d7f019667524faf1067ff90.jpg?v=1788342091","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-220960-threaded-rod-3-8-16-6-ft-ss-grade-316","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
