2 GENERAL DATA
2.1 Length
Threaded rods are commonly produced in, hut not limited to, 3-ft, 6-fL, 10-fl, and 12-ft lengths. The length of the threaded rod shall be measured, overall, from end to end. The length tolerance on all threaded rods in nominal lengths of 6 ft and longer shall be ± in., and ±‘. in. for nominal lengths less than 6 ft. See Fig. 1.
2.2 Threads
Unified threads shall conform to the requirements of ASME Bl.1. For UNC and UNF threads, Class 1A will 1w furnished unless otherwise specified. (lass 2A shall
1w applicable for 8UN threads and at the manufacturer’s option for other series, and for sizes where Class 1A is not applicable. Plated threads shall conform to ASME B1.l, Class 3A high limit (basic) and the low limit requirement of the before-coated or plated thread class.
Acme threads shall meet the requirements of ASME BI.5, Class 2G.
Table 1 contains the thread diameter and threads per inch combinations for Unified and Acme thread sizes considered standard.
2.3 Thread Acceptance Gaging
Unless otherwise specified by the purchaser, gaging for screw thread dimensional acceptahffity shall be in accordance with Gaging System 2I as specified in
ASME B1.3.
2.4 Ends
The ends shall he of sufficient workmanship to allow for easy assembly with an appropriate mating nut.
2.5 Straightness
When required, straightness limits and the inspection technique to be used to evaluate straightness shall be agreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier.
2.6 Materials and Mechanical Requirements
The purchaser must specify the applicable specification for the threaded rod material. The material shall meet the chemical and mechanical properties of the applicable specification. Listed below are some of the primary material specifications for threaded rod. Other materials may he specified by the purchaser.
2.6.1 Steel Threaded Rod
2.6.1.1 Steel. The designation “steel” means low- carbon steel meeting all of the material and mechanical requirements of ASTM A307, Grade A.
2.6.1.2 Grade 36. The designation “Grade 36” means steel material meeting all of the material and.
