Threaded rod sizes are often specified by diameter (in inches) and length. In NYC, most hardware stores carry a standard range:
¼-inch (¼")
5/16-inch (5/16")
3/8-inch (3/8")
½-inch (½")
5/8-inch (5/8")
¾-inch (¾")
1-inch (1") — less common, but available for heavier structural uses
1 ft (12") — sometimes sold by cut length
2 ft (24")
3 ft (36")
4 ft (48") — among the most commonly stocked lengths
6 ft (72") — used for anchor bolts, supports, long connections
8 ft (96") — for longer structural uses or posts (sometimes special-order)
Coarse thread (UNC / national coarse) — most common
Fine thread (UNF / national fine) — less common, sometimes stocked
Zinc-coated / Galvanized — for corrosion resistance (especially exterior or structural)
Stainless steel — for corrosion-resistant, marine, or exposed-metal work
Grade 5 / Grade 8 (Heat-treated) rods — for structural, heavy-duty or load-bearing applications
| Diameter & Length | Common Use |
|---|---|
| ¼", 5/16" — 12"–24" | Light duty: small brackets, fixtures, anchor straps in light wood/concrete |
| 3/8" — 24"–48" | Medium-duty: framing, blocking, securing pipe/duct hangers, ledger bolts |
| ½" — 48"–72" | Heavy framing, ledger bolts to concrete/steel, structural attachments |
| 5/8", ¾", 1" — 48"–96" | Structural columns, beams, anchor rods, heavy machinery or load-bearing bolting |
| Stainless or galvanized rods (any diameter) | Outdoor, corrosion-prone, damp or exterior metal work |
When a customer picks threaded rod, remind them to check:
Grade / Strength rating — especially for load-bearing or structural work.
Material / Coating — galvanized or stainless for rust-resistance, especially outdoors or damp environments.
Thread type & pitch — coarse vs fine, and compatibility with nuts/bolts.
Length tolerance — some rods may need cutting to size; ensure compatibility with drill/anchor depth.
Use context — heavy structural anchoring vs light-duty fastening; pick size accordingly.
