Available in Zinc Plated Steel, Galvanised Steel, T304 (A2) Stainless Steel & T316 (A4) Marine Grade Stainless Steel

Use where it is undesirable to restrict longitudinal movement (Perhaps to allow vibration or thermal expansion)

Includes two nuts per leg

Although designed for British Standard Pipe Size, they can obviously be used wherever the dimensions are suitable for your application

All measurements in millimetres (mm)

Materials:

A4 (T316) Marine grade stainless steel has a greater corrosion resistance than A2 in certain environments. It is often used for Marine applications especially when coming into direct contact with saltwater.
A2 (T304) stainless steel has good resistance to corrosion except in severe industrial and Marine conditions. Use A4 in a marine environment.
BZP – Bright Zinc Plated (Grade 8.8) – A 3-micron plating is applied to the steel to give a shiny finish. Although it does afford some protection this is best suited to indoor use.
Galvanised (Grade 8.8) – A duller finish than BZP, typically 50 microns thick covering of Zinc and therefore provides much more protection suitable for many outdoor applications. To allow for this layer you should use tapped oversized nuts

Manufacturing:

Our manufacturing tolerances are + / – 1 mm

We use roll threading so the diameter of the bar is usually less than the thread size.

Lead time to manufacture more is 1-2 days for stainless Steel and 1 – 14 days for galvanised and zinc-plated steel
