Many construction projects require a wide variety and quantity of materials. Projects often require securing two items together, such as connecting overhead air conditioning ducts or affixing lighting fixtures to ceilings, requiring a fastener with the necessary length and rigidity to do the job correctly.
Installers can use a threaded metal rod to ensure proper structural integrity. Here at C.M. Mockbee Co., we offer high-quality, all thread rods of various material types, finishes and threads to fit your needs.
These rods are essential materials for supporting structural loads. Shearing and failure under cyclical stresses are common challenges in construction, but the rods’ threaded design and materials make them resilient against these issues.
All thread rods are made to last and stress tested thoroughly to ensure these assemblies have a negligible risk of self-loosening or joint failure over time. They are a great way of ensuring a construction project stands the test of time.
There are many advantages to using all thread rods in your building’s construction. Some of them are:
Construction workers can use this type of rod for many general construction applications, such as alternatives to anchor rods and pipe flange connections or for fastening to concrete and masonry. However, the material, finish and type of threading will impact which situation it’s best to use this rod in.
We use a diverse set of materials to suit your needs. We offer a low-carbon steel threaded rod with superb malleability and ductility, which makes it perform well under pressure. We also offer T304 and T316 stainless steel — which have excellent durability and corrosion resistance — and ASTM A 193 B7 and ASTM F1554 Grade 55, which are high-tensile steel alloys useful in high-temperature, high-pressure environments.
Lastly, we offer a strong silicon bronze threaded rod that is saltwater resistant, electrically conductive and nonmagnetic.
Our finishes come in plain or oil, clear zinc plated, hot dip galvanized and black oxide varieties for protection in harsh environments.
Our fully threaded rods come in coarse or fine for right- or left-hand securing.
For your convenience, we also provide metric threading on all-thread rods, as well as Acme for any power transmission or lead screws you need.
