S-8420K81 10-32 Threaded Rods

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Dual-direction threading capability enables versatile assembly and adjustment in complex mechanical systems requiring both clockwise and counter-clockwise motion
• Lightweight aluminum construction reduces overall system weight while maintaining structural integrity for moving components
• Hex-shaped rod design provides superior grip for installation tools, preventing slippage during tightening operations
• Extended 18-inch length accommodates spacing requirements in framework assemblies and structural applications
• Precision 10-32 thread sizing ensures reliable compatibility with standard industrial components and fastening systems
• Full-length thread engagement (1-3/16" on both ends) maximizes connection strength and load distribution
• Regulatory compliance assurance meets international environmental standards for industrial manufacturing applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This aluminum threaded rod delivers exceptional engineering value through its unique dual right-hand/left-hand threading configuration, solving critical assembly challenges in automated machinery and precision equipment. The hex-shaped aluminum rod provides excellent torsional resistance during installation, while the lightweight material reduces inertial loads in dynamic applications. Manufacturers benefit from the 10-32 thread size compatibility with standard components, eliminating custom machining requirements. The extended 18-inch length with threaded ends serves perfectly in structural framing, motion control systems, and assembly jigs where adjustable tensioning or spacing is required. The combination of RH and LH threading enables sophisticated mechanical arrangements without additional adapters, streamlining production processes and reducing component counts in complex assemblies.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This threaded rod features precision Class 2A thread tolerances with unified thread standards (10-32). Manufacturing complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) requirements under exemption 6(b)-II for lead as an alloying element in aluminum, and maintains full REACH (EC 1907/2006) compliance with the latest SVHC updates. The product maintains dimensional accuracy with 1-3/16" thread length on both ends and consistent 1/4" hex size throughout the 18-inch length for reliable performance in industrial applications.
