Genius. Takes away my anxiety about how I was going to file the end so the thread still worked nicely. Thank you sir. People like you make KZfaq indispensable for a DIYer.

This is brilliant: can't believe it's not a more popular video. Will save me a fortune on bolts for anchoring into resin for joist hangers.

Thank you for the tip. I'm repairing an old brass hat rack my father gave to me about 30 years ago. The hat rack uses threaded rod to connect the coat and hat hangers to its main structure. After all these years the threaded rod has bent. I've decided to replace the steel threaded rod with a brass one. This solves the thread problem for me. Thank you again.

Nice vid. If using a metal vise or pliers, butt a couple nuts together on the rod and clamp to the nuts to protect the threads. You can also move a nut all the way from the good end and clean the threads as you take the nut off the cut end.

A little trick to hold the bar: place 2 bolts along the threaded pipe at around 3 inches apart. Line up the rod with the bolts in parallel into a bench vice an tighten the vice onto the bolts. That will give you a good hold on the rod with no risk of slipping or damming threads.

This is great, but I usually have to cut 80 to 100 pieces at a time. I usually use a Porta Band or a Threaded Rod Cutter, it produces cleans ends 95% of the time or a quick touch up with a file.

Thanks for the support ;-) I used to have a similar issue on my own website, when I started it the site got big and i needed a dedicated server costing £600 per month. The ads paid for the server so no big deal. Then people started using ad blockers and whinging about the ads. One day the internet will be a different place as all the small people will disappear because people don't like adverts. One day all you will get are corporate websites and KZfaq videos made by big corporations ;-)

great video - just an fyi - dont use a grinder if the threaded rod is galvanized.
@garthqueen10 жыл бұрын
Can you tell me why? I recently used mine to cut and shorten galvanised gate hinges with no problem.
@cptfunnypants9 жыл бұрын
animal79thecat Because the fumes from grinding or welding galvanized metal is poisonous. You just need to make sure you're wearing a proper breathing mask and eye protection while you're doing it.

So minutes of using a hacksaw beats a few seconds of angle grinder does it ????😁

If you have a vice, the grinder will win ;-) Thanks for the comment

M Fuller -It took about 50 seconds to cut it using the hacksaw , and keep in mind that hacksaws are usually put away with the blade in it . It might easily have taken much longer to change the blade on the angle grinder , and stretch out an extension cord if you are using a corded angle grinder . Even if you are using a battery powered angle grinder , the battery may be low . Gathering your gloves , eye protection and hearing protection will all add to the start up time . If you have several to do , go with the angle grinder . if you only have one or two , the hacksaw does the trick . ( Admittedly , you will feel it in your triceps . )
