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

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

Clip retaining rings into the grooves to separate and position gears, sprockets, and bearings.

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.

Clip retaining rings into the grooves to separate and position collars, supports, and housings.

About half the strength of medium-strength steel threaded rods, use these for light duty hanging, mounting, and fastening.

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

Grade B8 threaded rods meet the pressure and temperature requirements of ASTM A193 and are often used to secure pressure tanks, valves, and flanges. They have good chemical resistance.

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

Designed for use with right-hand, externally 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.
