All Thread Rod
Allthread (threaded rod or studding) is continuously threaded rod used in construction, fitout, engineering and maintenance for hanging, bracing, anchoring and joining. AIMS Industrial stocks metric and imperial allthread in mild steel, hot-dip galvanised and stainless steel (316 and 304) for structural and corrosion-resistant applications.
Construction and Fitout Applications
Allthread is the standard suspension rod for HVAC duct hangers, cable tray supports, pipe hangers and suspended ceiling grids — run from cast-in anchors or sleeve anchors through the structure above and terminated with nuts and flat washers on each side of the supported component. In formwork, allthread is used as through-bolts to tie opposing ply faces under concrete pour pressure. In fitout, M8 and M10 allthread is used extensively for adjustable shelving supports and furniture fixings.
Material Selection
Mild steel allthread suits internal and covered structural applications. Hot-dip galvanised allthread is used externally and in environments where moisture exposure would corrode bare steel — roof structures, open-air structures and coastal construction. Stainless steel allthread (316 grade) is specified for marine and aggressive chemical environments, food processing plants and pharmaceutical facilities where corrosion resistance is paramount and galvanised coatings are not suitable.
Sizes and Lengths
Standard metric allthread is available from M6 to M30 in 1m and 3m lengths for cutting to requirement on site or in the workshop. Common imperial sizes (3/8" UNC, 1/2" UNC) are also stocked for legacy plant and equipment. For help with allthread specifications, quantities or cut lengths, contact our team.
