The maximum length a metal closet rod can span without additional support typically depends on its diameter and wall thickness, as well as the weight it needs to bear. Generally, for standard use with typical clothing, a metal rod of about 1 inch in diameter can span 4 to 6 feet without sagging. For longer spans or heavier loads, additional center supports are recommended to prevent bending or sagging.
