Threaded Rod
Threaded rods feature a long and fully threaded shaft. They are highly versatile and are often used to provide structural support in construction, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and other industrial applications. Their strength and versatility, along with their compatibility with standard fasteners like nuts, locknuts, and washers, make them easy to use and highly reliable for both structural and non-structural jobs.

Threaded Rod Options and Specifications
EPCO supplies a wide selection of threaded rods in inch and metric sizing for structural and industrial applications. Use the following information to review available threading types, material grades, finishes, and size options.Right-Hand Threaded Rods
Right-handed threaded rods tighten when turned clockwise. These rods are the most common and are compatible with standard nuts and fittings. Right-handed threaded rods are used for most general-purpose fastening and structural jobs across construction, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical applications.Left-Hand Threaded Rod/Reverse Threaded Rods
Left-handed threaded rods, or reverse threaded rods, feature threads that tighten counterclockwise. These are used in applications where rotation or vibration could loosen a standard thread, including turnbuckles or arbors.Threaded Rod Material Grades
