Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This carbon steel threaded rod delivers exceptional performance in demanding settings like construction frameworks, machinery assembly, and infrastructure projects. Its double-ended threading with right-hand direction provides uniform load transfer, minimizing point stress that can lead to joint failure. The 5/16"-18 thread size adheres to common industrial standards, ensuring compatibility with existing fittings and reducing procurement delays. Engineered for heavy-duty applications, the rod's carbon steel material offers high tensile strength, resisting shear forces and corrosion in outdoor or high-moisture environments. The extended 1 5/8" thread length on each end allows for deeper engagement, enhancing stability in dynamic systems subject to vibration or thermal expansion. By integrating RoHS and REACH compliance, it supports sustainable manufacturing practices without compromising on mechanical integrity.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This threaded rod maintains precise Class 2A thread tolerances for consistent fit with standard 5/16"-18 nuts. Manufactured from round carbon steel with an overall length of 12" and OD of 5/16", it features unified coarse threading (UNC) on both ends. The product conforms to RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) under exemption 6(a) for lead in steel alloys and is REACH (EC 1907/2006) compliant as of January 17, 2023, with no SVHC above threshold limits. These specifications ensure reliability in mechanical fastening systems requiring dimensional accuracy and regulatory adherence.
