ASTM F1554 Grade 36 All Thread Rods with Clear Cr3 Zinc Plating

ASTM F1554 Grade 36 All Thread Rods – Clear Cr3 Zinc Plated

Cost-Effective Anchor Rods with Enhanced Corrosion Resistance

ASTM F1554 Grade 36 all thread rods with Clear Cr3 Zinc plating are ideal for light-duty structural anchoring and concrete embedment where moderate corrosion protection is required. Designed for foundation anchoring, signposts, and light pole installations, these rods offer a reliable blend of strength, economy, and environmental compliance.

What Is ASTM F1554 Grade 36?

ASTM F1554 covers specifications for anchor bolts and threaded rods used in concrete foundations. Grade 36 indicates a low carbon steel rod with a minimum yield strength of 36,000 psi, offering excellent weldability and versatility for general-purpose anchoring.

These rods are fully threaded for maximum adjustability and are compatible with standard nuts, washers, and couplers used in structural and commercial projects.

Why Choose Clear Cr3 Zinc Plating?

The Clear Cr3 (trivalent chromium) zinc plating offers:

• ✅ Moderate corrosion resistance for indoor or sheltered outdoor use

• ✅ RoHS compliance, making it a safer, more environmentally friendly alternative to hexavalent chromium coatings

• ✅ Smooth, clean appearance ideal for visible installations

• ✅ Improved durability over plain, uncoated steel rods

Common Sizes and Applications

Available in diameters from 1/2" to 1-1/2", and standard lengths of 6', 10', and 12', F1554 Grade 36 Clear Cr3 zinc-plated rods are commonly used for:

• Structural anchor bolt assemblies

• Light pole and traffic sign installations

• Commercial building foundations

• Utility and telecommunications structures

A Smart Choice for Anchoring with Added Protection

When your project needs strength, affordability, and corrosion protection, ASTM F1554 Grade 36 all thread rods with Clear Cr3 zinc plating are the ideal solution for reliable structural anchoring.
