SAG Rods

The Sag Rod is completely different from the Turnbuckle Rod or Clevis Rod. It usually requires pass through of the members it supports. This pass through allows take-up to be achieved with standard nuts and washers. There is no need for left hand thread on either end. This Custom Component creates a sag rod between 2 girts. It also cuts holes in the 2 girts. There are 2 options to control the sizes of the nuts and washers. The first option sizes the nut and washer profiles based on the diameter of the rod diameter.

SAG Rods Applications

A SAG rod for preventing the sagging of an open-web steel joist that is used as a purlin with its depth at right angles to a roof slope. It is also used in Packaging of Materials for Export etc.

SAG Rods Coatings / Finish

All SAG rods are commonly available in plain steel, hot-dip galvanized, Yellow Zinc and zinc plated. Plain finish all thread rod is often referred to as "black" and it is raw, uncoated steel. Kapson thread rods that will be exposed to the outside elements may need to be hot-dip galvanized to prevent corrosion. Zinc plating can also be used as a corrosion-resistant coating, though a hot-dip galvanized coating will provide greater corrosion-resistance. Zinc plating is commonly used for aesthetic purposes since it can be plated in multiple colors and provides a consistent and shiny coating. For other types of coating as per client's requirements.
