M14 Stainless Steel SS304/SS316 DIN976 Thread Rods are fully threaded rods (often referred to as all-thread or continuously threaded rod) with an M14 nominal diameter. They are manufactured from stainless steel grades SS304 or SS316, adhering to the DIN976 standard, which specifies the dimensions and tolerances for threaded rods. These rods are used as fasteners for a wide range of applications where corrosion resistance, strength, and precise threading are essential.

Definition

An M14 Stainless Steel SS304/SS316 DIN976 Thread Rod is a solid cylindrical bar, 14 millimeters in nominal diameter, continuously threaded along its entire length. It is produced from either SS304 (A2) or SS316 (A4) stainless steel, offering superior corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. The adherence to the DIN976 standard ensures consistency in thread pitch, diameter, and overall quality, making it suitable for secure and reliable fastening applications in demanding environments, particularly where exposure to moisture, chemicals, or extreme temperatures is a concern.

Key Features

• Material: Available in Stainless Steel SS304 (A2) & SS316 (A4).
  • SS304: General-purpose stainless steel with good corrosion resistance, suitable for a wide range of applications.
  • SS316: Enhanced corrosion resistance, particularly against chlorides and saline environments, making it ideal for marine and chemical applications.
• Diameter: M14 (14mm nominal diameter).
• Standard: Conforms to DIN976 (or equivalent ISO standards), ensuring dimensional accuracy and thread quality.
• Threading: Fully threaded along the entire rod length.
• Length: Available in various standard and custom lengths to suit specific project requirements.
• Corrosion Resistance: Excellent resistance to rust, oxidation, and various corrosive media.
• High Strength: Offers good tensile strength and durability for load-bearing applications.

Applications

• Construction: Used in structural applications, concrete forms, and anchoring systems.
• Marine and Coastal Environments: Ideal for boats, docks, and structures exposed to saltwater due to SS316’s superior chloride resistance.
• Chemical and Petrochemical Industries: Employed in environments with exposure to corrosive chemicals.
• Food and Beverage Processing: Suitable for hygiene-critical applications due to stainless steel’s non-reactive and easy-to-clean properties.
• Water Treatment Plants: Used for equipment and infrastructure where resistance to water and various water treatment chemicals is crucial.
• General Fastening: Versatile for a wide array of fastening, connection, and assembly tasks across various industries.
• Plumbing and HVAC: Used for pipe hanging, ductwork, and other support applications.

Advantages

• Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: Provides long-lasting performance in harsh conditions, reducing maintenance and replacement costs.
• High Durability: Maintains structural integrity and strength over time, even under significant stress.
• Versatility: Can be cut to any desired length and is compatible with standard nuts and washers, offering flexibility in design and application.
• Aesthetic Appeal: Stainless steel offers a clean, professional appearance, often preferred in visible applications.
• Hygienic Properties: Particularly relevant for SS304/SS316 in food, medical, and pharmaceutical industries due to ease of cleaning and sterilization.
