Threaded rods, also known as studs, are long rod fasteners that are threaded either along their whole length or just on set lengths at each end. These rods are similar to screws in appearance and function but are much thicker and longer. Threaded rods are most commonly constructed from metals such as steel or stainless steel. Their main use is to fasten wood or metal together, but they are also used to stabilise structures by being inserted into concrete and can be done so on a permanent or temporary basis. Their threading also allows for bolts or nuts to easily fasten to it where required. Threaded rods come in various lengths and diameters, meaning their functionality covers a huge range of applications. These rods are very useful as they can be custom cut to length to suit your application and the thread can have a right-handed or left-handed thread pattern.
