Value Collection CD559819 5/16-24 Unf Threaded Rod 3 Ft

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION CD559819 is a 5/16-24 UNF threaded rod made from low-carbon steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It runs the full 3-foot length with continuous right-hand threads conforming to Unified National Fine (UNF) standards. Threaded rod in this configuration is a fundamental fastening component used to anchor, align, hang, or tension assemblies across mechanical, structural, and utility applications. The 5/16-24 thread pitch provides finer thread engagement compared to coarse-thread equivalents, making it well suited for applications where vibration resistance or precise adjustment is required.

This threaded rod is commonly used in HVAC equipment mounting, pipe hanger assemblies, electrical conduit support struts, and general mechanical fabrication. The 3-foot length gives installers a standard stock length that can be cut to task-specific dimensions on site. The bright uncoated finish is appropriate for dry or interior environments. Trade professionals including HVAC technicians, pipefitters, electricians, and millwrights regularly stock this size for overhead and in-wall support work.

Key Features

• 5/16-24 UNF thread form for fine-pitch fastening and vibration-resistant connections
• Full 3-foot length for flexible on-site cutting to required dimensions
• Low-carbon steel construction offers good weldability and machinability
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for interior and dry-environment installations
• Continuous threading along the entire length allows any cut section to remain fully usable

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 5/16-24 UNF threaded rod for use with compatible hex nuts, coupling nuts, threaded inserts, and hardware conforming to UNF thread standards. Suitable for general-purpose mechanical and structural fastening in applications that call for 5/16-24 fine-thread hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, or electrical tradespeople depending on the application. Cut to length using a hacksaw or chop saw rated for steel; dress cut ends with a thread die or file to remove burrs before assembly. Verify that mating nuts and hardware share the same 5/16-24 UNF thread specification before assembly. For overhead or suspended applications, follow applicable load ratings and local building or mechanical codes for hanger and support systems.
