Metallics RCT26SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size does the Metallics RCT26SS rod coupling take?
The RCT26SS couples 1/4-20 threaded rod, so both ends accept standard 1/4 inch rod with 20 threads per inch. If the rod on the job is 3/8-16 or 1/2-13, this is the wrong size coupling.
2) Is the Metallics RCT26SS rod coupling stainless steel?
Stainless steel, which is what you want for damp locations, exterior canopies, parking structures, kitchens and wash-down areas where a plated steel coupling would rust at the thread line.
3) What is a hex rod coupling used for on a hanger job?
A hex coupling joins two lengths of threaded rod end to end, so you can extend a drop rather than ordering longer stock, or splice a cut rod. The RCT26SS is the hex body style in 1/4-20, and the flats let you hold or turn it with a wrench while you thread rod in from both sides.
4) Do I order the RCT26SS by part number, and does it come in other sizes on the same number?
Order it as Metallics RCT26SS. That part number is the 1/4-20 stainless hex coupling only, one configuration, so there is no finish or size option to specify. Larger rod diameters are a different Metallics part number.
5) How many rod couplings come in a jar of Metallics RCT26SS?
They ship 50 to the jar, which is the practical buy for a trade stocking a van or a shop crib running continuous 1/4-20 rod drops on a fixture or strut job.
