Metallics TRS6/3SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a 1/4-20 threaded rod work for hanging electrical conduit or a small junction box?
A 1/4-20 rod is the lightest of the common trapeze and hanger rod sizes, and it suits light loads: single small-diameter conduit runs, cable tray drops in light duty, small boxes and fixture hangers. For trapeze supports carrying multiple conduits or heavier runs, step up to 3/8-16 or 1/2-13 rod instead. The TRS6/3SS is the 1/4-20 size at 3 feet.
2) Is the TRS6/3SS rod stainless steel or just zinc plated?
Stainless steel, not plated carbon steel. That matters on wet or corrosive work, outdoor runs, coastal jobs, kitchens and wash-down areas, where a zinc plated rod will rust at the cut end. Note that stainless threads gall more easily than plated steel, so run nuts on slowly.
3) Can I cut the 3 foot stainless rod down to the drop length I need?
Yes, a 3 foot stick is normally cut to the drop on site. Cut stainless with an abrasive wheel or bandsaw and chase the end with a nut or file so it will take a nut cleanly. Because the rod is stainless throughout rather than plated, a cut end does not need touch-up coating the way a zinc rod would.
4) How is the Metallics TRS6/3SS threaded rod packaged, by the piece or in a bundle?
It is sold as a bundle pack type, and the item is identified as piece 1 of the bundle. If you need a precise count of rods for a job, confirm the bundle quantity when you order rather than assuming one stick.
