Value Collection BD32446 Unequal Double Threaded Stud

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD32446 is an unequal double threaded stud designed for fastening applications that require different thread specifications on each end. Machined from Grade 5 steel with an uncoated finish, this stud measures 2-1/4 inches overall length with a 1-1/16-inch long-thread end and a 3/4-inch short-thread end separated by a 7/16-inch unthreaded shank. The long end carries a 1/2-20 thread pitch and the short end carries a 1/2-13 thread pitch, making this stud well suited for assemblies that must interface two different thread standards. Plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and maintenance mechanics commonly use double threaded studs in equipment mounting and mechanical assembly work.

This stud is appropriate for light-duty to medium-duty mechanical assemblies in residential and commercial trade applications. The unequal thread configuration is typically used where one end anchors into a tapped hole or fitting and the opposite end accepts a nut to secure a mating component. The uncoated steel finish suits interior and protected environments. Sold in a package quantity of 10, this stud is a practical stock item for service vans and shop inventory.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic, technician, or tradesperson familiar with threaded fastener assemblies. Ensure mating tapped holes are clean and free of debris before driving the stud. Use a stud driver or double-nut method to install without damaging thread surfaces. Do not exceed the torque capacity appropriate for Grade 5 steel fasteners of this diameter as determined by standard fastener torque tables.
