Metallics J5125 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size anchor is the Metallics J5125, and what does it come with?
The Metallics J5125 is a 1/4 x 5/8 inch sleeve-type anchor in steel with a zinc finish, supplied with the nut. It ships 100 pieces to a jar.
2) What hole size do I drill for a 1/4 inch sleeve anchor?
A 1/4 inch sleeve anchor like the J5125 sets in a 1/4 inch diameter hole drilled with a carbide bit, since the sleeve diameter and the nominal anchor size are the same on this style. Drill the hole deeper than the 5/8 inch anchor length so drill dust does not bottom the anchor out, blow it clean, then set the anchor through the fixture and tighten the nut to expand the sleeve.
3) How thick a fixture can I fasten with a 5/8 inch long sleeve anchor?
Not much. The 5/8 inch overall length of the J5125 has to cover both the embedment in the concrete and the thickness of what you are fastening, so it suits thin items like strap, conduit clamps, and light brackets. If you are mounting anything with real standoff or a thick base plate, step up to a longer anchor in the same 1/4 inch diameter.
4) Is the Metallics J5125 anchor OK for outdoor or damp locations?
The J5125 is steel with a zinc plating, which is a dry interior or protected finish. Zinc plating handles incidental moisture but will corrode in exterior, wet, or coastal exposure, so for those locations specify a stainless anchor instead.
5) Do I need to buy nuts and washers separately for this Metallics anchor?
The nut comes with the anchor, as the "&NT" in the J5125 description indicates. You only need a wrench and a 1/4 inch carbide masonry bit to set it.
6) Is the J5125 sold by the piece or in bulk for stocking a service truck?
It is a jar of 100 pieces, which is the usual MRO and electrical truck-stock pack for small anchors. One jar covers a lot of conduit strap and box mounting on concrete.
