Metallics JTS5312G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size wedge anchor is the Metallics JTS5312G, and what thread does it take?
The JTS5312G is a 5/8-11 x 3-1/2 inch wedge anchor, so the stud is 5/8 inch diameter with 11 threads per inch (standard UNC for 5/8). Any 5/8-11 nut or threaded accessory mates with it. Overall anchor length is 3-1/2 inches, which sets how much embedment plus fixture thickness you have to work with.
2) What hole size do I drill for a 5/8 inch wedge anchor like the JTS5312G?
Wedge anchors are drilled at the same nominal diameter as the anchor, so a 5/8 inch carbide hammer-drill bit for this 5/8-11 anchor. Drill deeper than your intended embedment to leave room for dust, drop the anchor through the fixture, and tighten the nut to expand the clip.
3) Can I use the Metallics JTS5312G galvanized wedge anchor outdoors?
The JTS5312G is galvanized, which is the finish normally specified for damp, exterior, or unheated locations where plain carbon steel would rust. For strut, conduit racks, and equipment bases on outdoor concrete pads it's the right choice over zinc-plated. For permanently wet or chemically aggressive settings, stainless is the step up.
4) How many anchors come in a jar of Metallics JTS5312G?
25 anchors per jar. Pack type is a jar, not a loose bulk box, so count your anchor points and order in multiples of 25. A 5/8 inch anchor is typically used at four points per base plate, which works out to roughly six plates per jar.
5) Is the JTS5312G a wedge anchor or a sleeve anchor, and does that matter for my base plate?
It's a wedge anchor: a single steel stud with an expansion clip at the bottom, set in solid concrete only. Wedge anchors are for poured concrete and give high pull-out values in base plates, strut, and equipment mounting. They are not for hollow block, brick, or drywall, where a sleeve anchor or a toggle is the correct part.
6) Do I need a separate nut and washer for the Metallics JTS5312G wedge anchor?
No. Wedge anchors ship with the nut and washer assembled on the threaded stud, since the nut is what drives the clip and sets the anchor. You do need the right tools on site: a 5/8 inch carbide bit, a rotary hammer, a blow-out bulb or vacuum, and a torque wrench to set the nut.
