This threaded stud can be used to provide a male thread on a cylinder rod with female threads. It is a potential repair part for cylinders from a variety of manufacturers. It is used instead of a male threaded rod because it is often stronger and it is more serviceable. If the male threads are damaged, only the stud needs to be replaced, not the entire cylinder rod, which would require disassembly of the cylinder.
