Value Collection 45891 Fully Threaded Stud 3/8-16 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 45891 is a fully threaded stud with a 3/8-16 thread size and an overall length of 1-1/2 inches. Fully threaded studs are double-end fasteners with no unthreaded shank, allowing engagement along the entire length of the fastener. This stud is manufactured from carbon steel at material grade 3.6 and carries a plain uncoated finish with black oxide coating applied to resist rust. It is used across mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and general fabrication applications where a fixed threaded anchor point is required. Installation is performed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general tradespeople.

This fully threaded stud is suited for light-duty anchoring, equipment mounting, and assembly work in residential and commercial mechanical systems. The 3/8-16 coarse thread pattern is one of the most common thread specifications in trade fastener applications, fitting standard nuts, couplings, and threaded inserts. The 1-1/2 inch overall length makes it appropriate for shallow to medium-depth fastening in panel assemblies, pipe hangers, equipment brackets, and similar installations.

Key Features

• Fully threaded along the entire 1-1/2 inch length for maximum engagement flexibility
• 3/8-16 coarse thread — one of the most widely used thread specifications in mechanical trades
• Carbon steel construction at material grade 3.6 for reliable light-duty tensile performance
• Black oxide coating applied to resist rust in typical indoor trade environments
• Uncoated plain finish compatible with standard plated nuts and hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a standard fully threaded stud for use with 3/8-16 threaded nuts, inserts, and coupling hardware commonly found in residential and commercial mechanical, HVAC, and plumbing installations.

Installation Notes

Fully threaded studs are installed by threading one end into a tapped hole or coupling nut and securing the assembly with a nut on the opposite end. Use appropriate wrenches or stud drivers and follow torque guidelines for grade 3.6 carbon steel hardware per applicable assembly standards. Verify thread engagement depth is sufficient on both ends before applying load. Do not use in applications requiring higher-grade fasteners or corrosive environments without additional corrosion protection.
