Value Collection 316CLN0508F031 Threaded Rod 5/8-11 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 316CLN0508F031 is a full-length threaded rod machined with a 5/8-11 Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread form and manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel. At 36 inches in overall length, this rod provides corrosion-resistant fastening material for structural, mechanical, and plumbing applications where moisture, chemicals, or salt exposure are concerns. Grade 316 stainless steel adds molybdenum to the alloy compared to Grade 304, making it well suited for chloride-rich environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC installers, and general contractors use threaded rod as an all-thread anchor or hanging component for pipe hangers, duct supports, equipment mounts, and structural tie rods.

This threaded rod is commonly used in commercial and industrial settings where corrosion resistance is a primary requirement. Typical applications include suspending pipe hangers and strut channel from overhead structure, anchoring equipment bases, and assembling mechanical connections that require a continuous thread along the full length of the fastener. The 5/8-11 UNC thread size is a widely specified diameter in mechanical and plumbing drawings. The 36-inch length can be cut to specific working lengths in the field with a hacksaw or abrasive cutoff tool suited for stainless steel.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in moisture-heavy and chloride-exposed environments
• 5/8-11 UNC thread form matches standard hex nuts, coupling nuts, and rod hangers in the same thread class
• 36-inch overall length allows field-cutting to required working lengths
• Full-length thread eliminates the need to pre-position connections before assembly
• General-purpose designation suits a broad range of structural hanging and mechanical fastening applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose all-thread rod compatible with standard 5/8-11 UNC hex nuts, coupling nuts, rod-hanging hardware, and strut fittings rated for stainless steel fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by plumbers, pipefitters, or HVAC technicians following applicable mechanical and building codes. Use cutting tools appropriate for stainless steel to avoid work-hardening the cut end, and rethread or deburr the cut end before assembly. When used as a structural hanger, verify that the rod diameter and grade meet the load requirements specified on the project drawings. Apply anti-seize compound rated for stainless steel on threaded connections to prevent galling during assembly and future disassembly.
