Diall M4 Threaded Rod - Bright Zinc-Plated, Silver

This is an M4 threaded rod, so it is compatible with M4 nuts and washers.

Yes, the continuous threading allows you to cut the rod to any custom length required for your project using appropriate metal cutting tools.

The bright zinc plating offers good resistance to corrosion for typical indoor and protected outdoor use. However, it can be abraded during cutting or installation, and is not as robust as thicker coatings or stainless steel in harsh environments.

The threaded rod is made from carbon steel.

It is commonly used for supporting suspended ceilings, installing racking, machinery, ductwork, railings, and other construction projects where standard bolts are not long enough.

No, nuts and washers are not supplied with the threaded rod and must be purchased separately.

Store the threaded rod in a dry, protected environment to prevent corrosion and maintain the integrity of the zinc plating.

Ensure you are using M4 nuts. Check the rod end for burrs or damage from cutting. Clean any debris from the threads.

Wipe the rod clean with a dry cloth. If corrosion is advanced, consider a rust remover suitable for plated steel and reapply protective measures if necessary. Ensure storage in a dry location.

This M4 rod is intended for moderate load-bearing applications. For heavier loads, consider a threaded rod with a larger diameter (e.g., M6, M8) and appropriate thread pitch.
