Value Collection A996825 M6 Metric Threaded Rod Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION A996825 is an M6 metric threaded rod rated at material grade 4.6, manufactured from steel with a zinc finish coating. The rod measures 1 meter (approximately 39.4 inches) in overall length and carries a continuous M6 thread along its full length. It is a standard fastener component used in mechanical assembly, structural bracing, and hanging applications across a wide range of trade industries. Maintenance technicians, millwrights, and general contractors install this type of rod when a through-threaded fastener longer than a standard bolt is required. The zinc finish provides a baseline level of corrosion resistance for typical indoor or sheltered applications.

This metric threaded rod is suited for light to medium-duty mechanical and structural fastening tasks. Common applications include equipment mounting, conduit support hangers, HVAC duct support systems, plumbing pipe hangers, and general fabrication work where M6 metric thread engagement is required. It is used in both residential and light commercial construction and maintenance settings. The full-length thread allows the rod to be cut to any required working length on the job site.

Key Features

• M6 metric thread size with continuous full-length threading for versatile cut-to-length use
• 1 meter (39.4 inches) overall length accommodates a wide range of installation depths
• Steel construction at material grade 4.6 provides reliable tensile strength for light to medium-duty fastening
• Zinc finish coating offers baseline corrosion resistance for sheltered and indoor environments
• Sold individually, allowing single-piece procurement for repair and replacement work

Compatibility

Designed as a standard M6 metric threaded rod for use with M6 hex nuts, coupling nuts, washers, and other M6-threaded fastener hardware in mechanical assembly and support hanger applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, or general contractors using standard metric wrenches or threaded rod cutters to trim the rod to the required length. Always de-energize or isolate any adjacent electrical or mechanical systems before beginning overhead or panel-area fastening work. Thread engagement should meet the requirements of the applicable structural or mechanical code for the installation type. Inspect the zinc finish for damage before installation in damp or corrosive environments, and select an appropriate coated or stainless grade if elevated corrosion resistance is required.
