Unthreaded Rods
Unthreaded Rods support suspended and structural assemblies where a set bolt length will not work. Cutting continuous thread to length gives you a custom fastening run without waiting on a special-order bolt. South Coast Fasteners stocks Unthreaded Rods in a full range of sizes, grades, and finishes, with fast 3-5 day shipping. Popular options include zinc plated unthreaded rods, 1/2 unthreaded rods, and 3/4 unthreaded rods.
Materials and Finishes
Unthreaded Rods come in grades matched to the load, from carbon steel through high-strength alloy and corrosion-resistant stainless, with finishes from plain and zinc through hot-dip galvanized for outdoor and washdown service. Pair them with Finished Hex Nuts, Flat Washers, and fasteners to round out the assembly.
How to Choose
Start with the diameter, thread pitch, and length your assembly needs, then choose a grade that carries the working load and a finish suited to the environment. Step up to alloy or stainless when strength or corrosion resistance is critical.
Unthreaded Rods Industry Applications
Unthreaded Rods are specified across the trades. Fabrication and construction make adjustable supports and standoffs with them, while petrochemical tie flanges and joints with them and nuts. Plain, zinc, and stainless, in standard and grade 8 or B7 alloy, cut and threaded for the run.
