S-6516K21 3/8"-24 Threaded Rods

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Lightweight yet durable aluminum construction reduces overall assembly weight while maintaining structural integrity in industrial applications.
• Precise 3/8"-24 thread size with Class 2A tolerance ensures reliable mating with compatible nuts and components for secure fastening.
• Double-ended threading with 2" thread length on both sides provides versatile installation options and extended engagement for enhanced load distribution.
• Right-hand thread direction offers standard, intuitive tightening for efficient assembly and maintenance procedures.
• Full RoHS 3 and REACH compliance guarantees environmental safety and regulatory adherence for global industrial supply chains.
• Corrosion-resistant aluminum material extends service life in environments where moisture or chemical exposure is a concern.
• 6" overall length with consistent 3/8" diameter delivers optimal strength-to-weight ratio for space-constrained applications.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 3/8"-24 aluminum threaded rod addresses critical engineering challenges in machinery assembly, automotive manufacturing, and electronic enclosures where weight reduction without compromising strength is paramount. The round rod shape and both ends threaded configuration enable flexible mounting solutions for structural bracing, component spacing, and vibration-resistant joints. Manufactured from high-grade aluminum, it resists galvanic corrosion while providing excellent conductivity—ideal for electrical grounding applications. The 2" thread length on each end ensures sufficient engagement depth to prevent stripping under dynamic loads, making it suitable for right-hand thread fastening systems in conveyor systems, packaging equipment, and modular frameworks requiring repeated disassembly.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This threaded rod meets Class 2A thread tolerances per ASME/ANSI standards with unified 3/8"-24 thread size and right-hand direction. It is manufactured in compliance with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) under exemption 6(b)-II for lead in aluminum alloys and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations (updated 01/17/2023), ensuring suitability for industrial and export markets requiring documented environmental compliance.
