Metallics TRS11-6 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the TRS11-6 threaded rod galvanized or plain steel?
It is steel with a zinc plating, which is the standard finish for interior hanger rod work. Zinc plated rod is not intended for sustained outdoor or wet exposure the way hot dip galvanized rod is.
2) Do I get one rod or a bundle when I order the Metallics TRS11-6?
The TRS11-6 is sold by the piece, one 6 foot rod per piece, and it ships as a bundle pack type. If you are hanging a run of trapeze or pipe hangers, order the piece count you need rather than expecting multiple rods per order line.
3) What nuts and washers do I need with 3/4 inch threaded rod?
Nothing is included with the TRS11-6 rod itself, so plan on 3/4-10 hex nuts and 3/4 inch flat washers at each connection, plus whatever hanger, strut fitting, or beam clamp carries the load. A 3/4 inch rod is UNC 3/4-10 thread.
4) Should I use 3/4 inch threaded rod or step down to 1/2 inch?
Three quarter inch rod like the TRS11-6 is the heavy end of the common hanger sizes, used for large diameter pipe, trapeze assemblies carrying several lines, and suspended equipment. For single runs of small conduit or branch piping, 3/8 or 1/2 inch rod is the usual choice and far easier to handle. Size the rod to the load figure your engineer or hanger manufacturer specifies rather than to the hole in the fitting.
5) Can I cut the 6 foot threaded rod down to shorter hanger lengths?
Yes. A 6 foot length of 3/4 inch rod is commonly cut on site into drops for pipe hangers, strut trapezes, and equipment supports. Cut with a bandsaw or abrasive wheel and chase the end with a nut to clean the first threads so the hardware runs on. Cut and bare ends lose the zinc coating, so touch them up if the location is damp.
6) Is this threaded rod continuously threaded along the full 6 feet?
Yes, the TRS11-6 is all thread rod, threaded the full 6 foot length, so you can take your connection at any point along it and trim the excess. That is the difference between all thread and a cut to length bolt or stud with threads only at the ends.
