Studding Connectors and Thread Convertors – Secure Rod-to-Rod Connections

Need to join threaded rod or bar with precision and strength? Our studding connectors and thread convertors provide the perfect solution for extending or adapting threaded components in a variety of pipework, mechanical, and structural systems. Available both online and in-store in Glasgow, we stock a wide range of sizes and types to fit every job.

What Are Studding Connectors and Thread Convertors?

Studding connectors are internally threaded couplers used to join two pieces of studding (threaded rod). Thread convertors, on the other hand, adapt from one thread size to another—whether increasing or reducing—ensuring compatibility across mixed installations.

Together, they are essential for:

• 🔩 Extending threaded rod securely

• 🔧 Adapting M6, M8, M10, M12, M16 threads

• 🏗️ Connecting mismatched threaded components

• 🛠️ Building adjustable support structures

Because they are compact yet strong, these fittings are ideal for use in pipe support systems, frameworks, bracket installations, and suspended fixings.

Available Types

We keep all common variants in stock for same-day dispatch:

• Hexagon Studding Connectors – For in-line rod extension

• Steel Thread Reducing Convertors – For adapting larger rod to smaller threads

• Steel Thread Increasing Convertors – For connecting smaller rod to larger threads

All types are available in zinc-plated steel for corrosion resistance, and selected items are also available in galvanised or stainless steel on request.

Applications

Studding connectors and convertors are commonly used in:

• ⚙️ Mechanical pipe support systems

• 🏢 HVAC and ductwork installations

• 🔧 Electrical trunking and cable tray frameworks

• 🧱 Fixings in concrete ceilings, beams, or walls

• 🔩 Custom bracket mounting and Unistrut systems

Because they are versatile, they can also be reused in temporary or adjustable frameworks.
