Metric Threaded Rod

Metric threaded rods, also known as threaded bars, hold a special place among fasteners and are used in various industries such as construction, machinery manufacturing, furniture production, automotive, and more. These rods feature threading along their entire length and are typically used with bolts or nuts to create durable and reliable connections. Classified using the metric measurement system, these rods are identified by a code starting with “M” (e.g., M6, M8, M10), where the number represents the diameter of the rod in millimeters.

Metric threaded rods are commonly made from materials such as steel, stainless steel, brass, aluminum, or plastic. Steel rods are favored for their strength and high load-bearing capacity, while stainless steel rods provide long-lasting performance in environments prone to corrosion. The surface of these rods can be treated with coatings like galvanization, zinc plating, or epoxy to enhance corrosion resistance.

Threaded rods can be used as a single long piece or cut to the desired length and combined with other fasteners such as nuts, washers, and bolts. For increased load-bearing capacity and stronger connections, multiple nuts or fastening elements can be used together with the rods. Manufactured in various lengths and diameters to suit different needs, metric threaded rods are ideal for creating secure and durable connections in a wide range of construction projects.
