Single end threaded studs pin or fasten two materials together. Their purpose is to withstand high levels of pressure and tension, though this depends on the threaded-rod material.

Threaded metal rods, which include titanium, zinc-plated steel and stainless steel, are used for heavy-duty applications. For example, a stainless-steel threaded rod or a threaded steel rod for that matter, is used in construction to join wood and metal together and stabilise structures. Copper threaded rod is malleable and ductile. With its high thermal and electrical conductivity, it’s a popular choice as a heat conductor and applications involving electricity, and as a building material.

Plumbing and contracting typically relies on threaded rods made of steel or stainless steel. They’re commonly used in HVAC installations, for example. They enable quick level or the sloping installation of ductwork, heaters, air handlers and other equipment. They’re also used to hang suspended ceilings and are ideal when proper alignment is needed in manufacturing and medical machines. You can even get hollow threaded brass rods, which are typically used in lampholders to feed wires.
