Shopping for 3/4 - 16 UNF plain threaded rod. Engineering dwg calls for SAE Grade 5. One attractive bid specifies C1541 material. Is this acceptable?

5iron - Yes. C1541 material meets the chemical requirments of SAE J429 Grade 5. You will want to ensure it is heat treated properly to meet the Grade 5 requirements.
