4000BC 5/16-18X24 T ROD ZN

This zinc-plated threaded rod is a precision fastener for industrial, construction, and DIY projects requiring secure connections and load-bearing strength. The 5/16-inch diameter rod features 18 threads per inch (UNC coarse thread with Class 2A fit) and extends 24 inches, providing ample reach for framework, machinery mounting, custom brackets, and plumbing or electrical assemblies. Fabricated from hot-rolled, cold-drawn low carbon steel and finished with a protective zinc coating, it resists corrosion in outdoor and humid environments while maintaining structural integrity throughout the project lifecycle.

This rod can be cut, heated, and bent to length on the job site, making it adaptable for custom applications. Whether you're building steel frameworks, securing equipment, or creating custom fixtures, this rod delivers the precision threading and durability that professionals and hobbyists alike depend on.
