Threaded Rod

Threaded rod can be used as a bolt where conventional bolts are too short. You can cut the rod to your specified lengths and add a nut and washer to create strong, secure connections. 

 

When should you use threaded rod?

Both threaded rods and bolts act like pins, providing sturdiness when joining two materials.

 

When deciding which to use, consider:

• Do you have exact dimensions?
  • If you'll be using clearly defined components, it should be straightforward to find bolts in the right lengths and grades.
• Are you installing components on-site?
  • You can find threaded rod in lengths of several feet and cut it to suit any application, so it's ideal if you can't predict how much you'll need. An angle grinder or hack saw is a clean and precise cutter for threaded rod.
• Will the joint withstand heavy loads?
  • Bolts are more widely available in high grades, so they tend to be used where stronger fastening is required, but high-strength threaded rod can act as an anchor in key structural elements.
