Metric Medium-Strength Steel Threaded Rods—Grade B7

Made of Grade B7 steel, the tensile strength of these threaded rods is one and a half times higher than low-strength steel threaded rods. They also meet the pressure and temperature requirements of ASTM A193 and are often used to secure pressure tanks, valves, and flanges.

Medium-Strength Steel Threaded Rods—Class 8.8

An economical alternative to Grade B7 and Grade B16 threaded rods, these metric Class 8.8 rods are suitable for fastening most machinery and equipment.
Zinc-plated steel threaded rods resist corrosion in wet environments.

Metric Low-Strength Steel Threaded Rods

These threaded rods are about half the strength of medium-strength steel threaded rods for light duty hanging, mounting, and fastening.
Zinc-plated steel threaded rods are corrosion resistant in wet environments.

Metric Threaded on Both Ends Studs

Also known as setup studs, these studs withstand sideways forces better than fully threaded studs because they have an unthreaded middle that is stronger than the treaded ends. The unthreaded middle also makes more contact with unthreaded holes, which creates better alignment than a fully threaded stud.
