Metallics TRS6/113 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will 1/4-20 threaded rod work for hanging small electrical boxes and light fixtures, or do I need 3/8-16?
1/4-20 rod like the TRS6/113 handles light duty work: small junction boxes, single fixture drops, low voltage raceway, and light strut runs. For heavier loads, trapeze hangers carrying multiple conduits, or anything a seismic or structural detail calls out, 3/8-16 or 1/2-13 rod is the usual spec. Check the hanger or fixture manufacturer's required rod size before you commit to 1/4 inch.
2) Is the Metallics TRS6/113 rod suitable for outdoor or damp locations?
It is zinc-plated steel, which gives corrosion resistance for indoor and dry or lightly damp interior work. Zinc plating is not a marine or sustained-wet finish, so for exterior exposure, wash-down areas, pool rooms, or coastal installs, specify stainless steel or hot-dip galvanized rod instead.
3) Does the Metallics TRS6/113 come as a single rod or a bundle?
The TRS6/113 is sold as a bundle pack type, with one 4 foot piece per the item description. Nuts, washers, couplings, and hanger hardware are separate items and are not part of the rod.
4) Can I cut the 4 foot threaded rod down to length on site?
Yes. The TRS6/113 is plain continuous-thread 1/4-20 zinc-plated steel rod, so it is cut to length in the field with a bandsaw, chop saw, or bolt cutter and the end is chased with a 1/4-20 nut or die to clean the threads. Touch up the cut end if the location is subject to moisture, since cutting exposes bare steel through the zinc plating.
5) What part number do I order for 1/4-20 x 4 foot zinc threaded rod from Metallics?
Order Metallics part number TRS6/113. That is the manufacturer part number for the 1/4-20 by 4 foot zinc-plated steel threaded rod, and there is a single configuration, so there are no finish or length options to specify.
