Metallics TRS610 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is zinc plated threaded rod like the TRS610 okay for outdoor or wet locations?
Zinc plated steel is a dry, indoor interior finish. The TRS610 is steel with zinc plating, which handles conditioned interior spaces fine but will corrode in exterior, damp, or washdown areas. For those, specify hot dip galvanized or stainless threaded rod instead.
2) Can I use 1/4-20 threaded rod to hang electrical conduit and small raceway?
Yes, 1/4-20 rod is the common size for light hanging duty: single runs of small trade size conduit, EMT straps, small boxes, and lightweight fixture supports. For heavier trapeze assemblies, multiple conduit runs, or large duct, step up to 3/8-16 or 1/2-13 rod. The TRS610 is sold in 10 foot lengths so one stick covers several drops once cut.
3) Do I need to cut the TRS610 rod to length, and what else do I need to hang it?
It comes as full 10 foot sticks, so you cut each drop to length on site with a bandsaw, chop saw, or rod cutter, and chase the cut end with a die or nut to clean the threads. Nothing else is included: you supply the 1/4-20 nuts and washers, the anchor or beam clamp at the structure, and the strap, clamp, or channel at the load end.
4) Will 1/4-20 couplings and hex nuts thread onto the Metallics TRS610 rod?
They will. The rod is cut to a standard 1/4-20 UNC thread, so any 1/4-20 hex nut, coupling nut, wing nut, rod coupler, or spring nut for strut channel threads straight on. Match the plating, zinc on zinc, to avoid mixed metal corrosion in damp spots.
5) What is the Metallics part number for 1/4-20 threaded rod in 10 foot lengths?
TRS610 is the Metallics catalog number for the 1/4-20 by 10 foot zinc plated steel threaded rod, sold 50 to a bundle. That is the number to reference when ordering or matching an existing stock item.
