Use brackets and connectors to create vertical and horizontal support arms.

These rods have a bracket on the base so they're ready to mount.

The pivoting joint on these rods makes angle-mounting easy.

Mount the flange to a machine or wall to support idler sprockets and pulleys in tensioning applications. They include washers and a nut to position your component and hold it in place.

Use these general purpose shafts with bearings, sprockets, and gears to transmit rotary motion.

Connect these internally threaded shafts directly to threaded components, or use a fastener to secure.

A flat surface area allows set screws to dig into the shaft for securely mounting gears, sprockets, and bearings.

These shafts have keyways only on the ends, leaving a plain shaft in the center. Use the keyways with machine keys to transmit torque to gears, sprockets, and other keyed components. Use the middle of the shaft with bearings and other round-bore components.

Attach threaded accessories, such as mixer propellers and fan blades, to the end of these shafts.

With a splined profile on one end, these shafts transmit high rotational loads—good for hydraulic systems, machine tools, and other high-torque applications. Compared to keyed shafts, they last longer, handle higher torque, and do not require as tight of a fit.

Combine these general purpose shafts with a linear bearing and shaft support to create a basic linear motion system.

Mount these externally threaded shafts into tapped holes rather than using a shaft support, or attach a hex nut, shaft collar, or other threaded accessory.

Keep a material certificate on hand for compliance and quality assurance needs. Certificates include a traceable lot number and material test report. These hollow shafts reduce system weight and allow you to run various media such as electrical wiring, compressed air tubing, coolants, or lubricants through the center.

A shoulder near the end of the shaft allows for easy positioning of housings, shaft supports, and collars.

These shafts include a support rail for a stable setup that eliminates bending and prevents linear bearings from rotating.

At approximately one-third the height of standard versions, these rails provide linear shaft support in applications with low vertical clearance. They provide stability over the entire length of shaft, allow virtually unlimited travel lengths, and eliminate bending under moderate to heavy loads.

These Class 10.9 steel threaded rods are about 25% stronger than medium-strength steel rods.

18-8 stainless steel threaded rods have good chemical resistance.

Tighten these threaded rods by turning them to the left; once fastened, they resist loosening from counterclockwise motion.

Stronger and more wear resistant than 18-8 stainless steel, these threaded rods are mildly chemical resistant. They meet the pressure and temperature requirements of ASTM A193 and are often used to secure pressure tanks, valves, and flanges.

These hardened 316 stainless steel threaded rods are 40% stronger than standard Grade B8M threaded rods. They meet the pressure and temperature requirements of ASTM A193 and are often used to secure pressure tanks, valves, and flanges.

Grade B8M threaded rods meet the pressure and temperature requirements of ASTM A193 and are often used to secure pressure tanks, valves, and flanges.

These metric 316 stainless steel threaded rods are more corrosion resistant than 18-8 and 410 stainless steel threaded rods and have excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water.

PTFE threaded rods withstand temperatures up to 250° F and resist oil, grease, detergents, and most mineral acids. They're the lowest friction plastic threaded rods we offer, so they thread on smoothly.

Brass threaded rods are corrosion resistant in wet environments, electrically conductive, and nonmagnetic.

Commonly used in valves, pumps, and shafts, these 400 nickel threaded rods resist salt water and caustic chemicals.

PVC threaded rods resist acids, alkalies, salt solutions, and alcohol.

Unlike metal rods, these threaded rods will not warp at extreme temperatures, making them ideal for heat treating and furnace fixtures.

Unlike metal rods, these metric threaded rods will not warp at extreme temperatures, making them ideal for heat treating and furnace fixtures.

Titanium threaded rods have a high strength-to-weight ratio and are resistant to acids and salt water.

A hex drive on one end allows these rods to be turned with a hex key for ease of installation.

Screw the threaded end of these metric studs into a tapped hole and use the unthreaded end as a pivot point, hinge, shaft, or locator pin.

18-8 stainless steel studs have good chemical resistance.

Connect and separate threaded rods, studs, and other components. These hollow rods have internal threads on both ends, so you can make connections and still pass wiring and other objects through the center of the rod.

These steel studs are zinc plated to resist corrosion in wet environments.

Weld these studs to uncoated steel surfaces.

18-8 stainless steel studs have good chemical resistance and may be mildly magnetic. Also known as hanger bolts, use them to hang, mount, and fasten parts to wood structures.

These studs are also known as hanger bolts—use them to hang, mount, and fasten parts to wood structures.

Designed for use with right-hand, internally threaded rod ends, these rods have right-hand threads on both ends. Use them for remote valve operators, throttle controllers, shifting mechanisms, and virtually any push/pull assembly.

Similar to turnbuckles, these rods have right-hand threads on one end and left-hand threads on the other so you can make a linkage that adjusts for tension.

Also known as single-start and self-locking lead screws and nuts, these have a single thread that runs the length of the screw. The nut travels only when the screw turns, so your system won't unexpectedly move when the lead screw is at rest.

Also known as trapezoidal-thread lead screws and nuts.

Multiple thread channels (also known as thread starts) create faster linear travel than lead screws with a single thread start.

Also known as single-start and self-locking lead screws and nuts, these have a single thread that runs the length of the screw. The nut travels only when the screw turns, so your system won't unexpectedly move when the lead screw is at rest.

Multiple thread channels (also known as thread starts) create faster linear travel than ball screws with a single thread start.

Multiple thread channels (also known as thread starts) create faster linear travel than ball screws with a single thread start.

Internal ball bearings provide smooth low-friction travel in applications that require high speeds, accurate positioning, and repeatable movement. Also known as single-start metric ball screws and nuts, these have a single thread that runs the length of the screw.

Precision cut threads make these metric ball screws approximately four times more accurate than standard ball screws. Use them when exact positioning is essential.

Install these nuts on a rotary shaft to create a linear positioning system without a lead screw. Instead of threads, a set of angled ball bearings drives the nut along a shaft as it spins.

A set of ball bearings reduces friction and secures the end of a ball or lead screw.

A set of ball bearings reduces friction and secures the end of a metric ball or lead screw.

These metric lead screws and nuts have broad, square threads that are well suited for quick assembly, high clamping forces, and lifting and lowering heavy objects. They're commonly found in hand-powered clamps, vises, grates, doors, and work tables.

Combine these setup studs with T-slot nuts, flanged nuts, setup clamps, or setup blocks to clamp and hold workpieces, vises, and other objects onto your fixturing table. Also known as double-ended studs, they have threads on both ends.
