Inch-to-Inch Female Hex Thread Adapters
Connect two differently sized male-threaded parts, such as threaded rods, and tighten with a standard wrench. The threads on these adapters have various sizes and spacing, so you can increase or decrease thread size or adapt from coarse to fine threading. You can also use them to change the gender of a connection from male to female. Small adapters can work as threaded standoffs, which position and separate circuit boards and other components in assemblies.
18-8 stainless steel adapters withstand wet environments but will corrode when exposed to salt water and other chloride solutions.
316 stainless steel adapters are ideal in wet environments and will not corrode when exposed to salt water or harsh chemicals.
Aluminum adapters are about one third of the weight of steel adapters and resist corrosion in wet environments.
Adapters that meet ASTM specifications are made from or plated with materials that adhere to standards for chemical and physical properties, such as hardness.

Removable Drill Bushings for Thin Metal
Unlike most bushings, these won’t buckle the material or distort the hole when installed in thin-gauge aluminum and steel plates. Insert them into a drilled hole and twist the lock ring to secure. Reusable and easy to replace, they are held in place by a lock ring (sold separately).
