6/24/2016 Stainless steel threaded rods are commonly found whenever there is an industrial project or an active construction site. Stainless steel is often used to avoid corrosion and staining on items. Combined into an alloy, stainless steel brings together the properties of low carbon grades along with different percentages of chromium and nickel.

All Thread - It is the chromium component that helps stainless steel resist corrosion, while its low carbon content doesn’t allow it to be effectively hardened. This makes stainless steel all thread rods great for some jobs and not so good for others.

When it comes to metal strength, the stainless steel threaded rod proves when tested to be stronger than most Grade 2 steels, but weaker than Grade 5 and Grade 8 steel that have been hardened. Depending on the ratio of metals in the alloy, the ultimate strength of most stainless steel grades will range from about 70 to 220 ksi.

Another feature that should be noted is the magnetic quality of stainless steel, which typically is less than its standard steel counterparts.
