Metallics TRS1210 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What hardware do I need to order with 7/8-9 threaded rod?
The bundle is rod only, with no nuts, washers, couplings or anchors included. Everything that lands on it has to match 7/8-9 coarse thread: hex nuts, flat washers, rod couplings for runs longer than 10 feet, and whatever concrete or beam anchor accepts a 7/8 inch rod. Mismatched 7/8-14 fine thread nuts will not run on.
2) Is zinc plated threaded rod like the TRS1210 OK for outdoor or wet locations?
Zinc plated steel is a mild corrosion coating meant for dry interior work: mechanical and electrical hangers, trapeze supports, and anchoring inside conditioned or protected spaces. For exterior, high humidity, coastal, or washdown areas, step up to hot dip galvanized or stainless rod in the same 7/8-9 thread instead of zinc plated.
3) Can I cut the 10 foot TRS1210 rod down to shorter hanger lengths?
Yes. Continuously threaded rod is cut to length on site, and a 10 foot stick yields whatever drop lengths your layout needs. Cut with an abrasive wheel or bandsaw, then chase or file the cut end so a 7/8-9 nut threads on cleanly. Cutting removes zinc at the end, so touch it up if the rod is anywhere damp.
4) Is 7/8 inch threaded rod overkill for hanging conduit and electrical racks?
For most conduit and cable tray drops, 3/8 or 1/2 inch rod carries the load, and 7/8 inch is heavier than needed. The 7/8-9 size earns its place on long unsupported spans, heavy trapeze assemblies carrying multiple large raceways, big equipment or transformer supports, and anywhere the engineer has specified that diameter on the drawing. If your submittal calls out 7/8 inch rod, this is the size; if it does not, a smaller diameter is usually the right order.
