HoleMole 24in All-Thread Rod – 1/4in-20 Aluminium
Description
HoleMole 24in All-Thread Rod – Replacement and Extension Component
- 24in threaded length: Measures approximately 610mm for positioning a Mole through deeper concrete openings.
- Threaded aluminium construction: Connects the HoleMole former to the reusable stand, Wall Applicator and SpeedNut.
- For extended installations: Specified by HoleMole for applications involving concrete slabs approximately 18 inches thick.
The HoleMole 24in All-Thread Rod is a genuine replacement and extension component for the HoleMole core-hole filling system. It connects to the centre of a correctly sized Mole, giving the installer the length required to lower the former through the opening, pull it back into position and secure it to the application tool from the working side.
Manufactured from threaded aluminium, the rod measures 24 inches, approximately 610mm. HoleMole identifies this length for applications involving an 18-inch slab thickness, approximately 457mm. Actual suitability depends on the opening depth, equipment arrangement and the amount of exposed thread required for secure SpeedNut engagement.
The 1/4in-20 thread is compatible with the HoleMole system and can also be joined to another standard rod using the matching HoleMole coupling nut where additional length is required by the approved method. Any extended assembly must remain straight, fully engaged and capable of holding the Mole correctly during material placement.
This listing contains one 24in threaded Mole rod. Moles, SpeedNut, Mole Stand, Wall Applicator, Speed Chute and coupling nut are supplied separately. Cable Glands UK provides genuine HoleMole rods and replacement components throughout the UK.

How to Use
How to Use a 24in HoleMole All-Thread Rod
- Measure the opening depth and confirm that a 24in rod provides sufficient length for the chosen Mole and application tool.
- Inspect the rod for bending, damaged threads or contamination before installation.
- Thread the rod securely into the centre connection of the correctly sized Mole.
- Lower or insert the Mole through the prepared opening, then use the rod to draw the former back against the opposite concrete face.
- Guide the rod through the Mole Stand or Wall Applicator and secure it with a compatible SpeedNut.
- If an extension is required by the approved method, join compatible rods using the correct 1/4in-20 coupling nut and verify full thread engagement.
- After the repair reaches the required set, complete the rod-removal, trimming or break-off stage specified by the HoleMole method and project requirements.
FAQs
How Long Is the HoleMole Extended Rod?
The rod is 24 inches long, equivalent to approximately 610mm, and is threaded along its length for the HoleMole system.
What thread does the Mole rod use?
The matching system thread is 1/4in-20.
What slab thickness is the 24in rod intended for?
HoleMole lists the extended 24in rod for applications involving an 18-inch, approximately 457mm, slab thickness. Confirm the required exposed length for your setup.
Can two rods be joined together?
Yes. The matching HoleMole 1/4in-20 coupling nut is designed to connect standard threaded rods and create an extended assembly.
Is the coupling nut included?
No. This listing contains one threaded rod; coupling nuts and other system parts are sold separately.
Is the rod compatible with the SpeedNut?
Yes. It is designed for the standard HoleMole rod and SpeedNut system.
Why might I need a replacement rod?
A rod may become part of the completed installation, be broken off or trimmed after set, or require replacement because of damage.
