Metallics JG9HC24 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do the Metallics JG9HC24 bolts come with nuts or washers?
No. The jar contains 25 hex cap bolts only, 1/2-13 x 2-1/2. Order matching 1/2-13 hex nuts and 1/2 inch washers separately, and match the nut grade to the bolt so the nut is not the weak link in the joint.
2) What does Grade 9 mean on a 1/2-13 hex cap bolt, and is it stronger than Grade 8?
Grade 9 sits above Grade 8 in tensile strength and is the top of the common structural cap screw grades. The JG9HC24 is a Grade 9 hex cap, so it is specified where a Grade 5 or Grade 8 fastener is not carrying enough load. Note that higher-grade bolts are also harder and less ductile, so do not substitute a Grade 9 in where a drawing calls out a specific lower grade.
3) How much grip length does a 2-1/2 inch long 1/2-13 hex cap bolt give me?
Overall shank length under the head is 2-1/2 inches on the JG9HC24, so your combined material stack plus washers plus enough thread for full nut engagement has to fit inside that. For a 1/2 inch bolt you want at least the nut height of thread projecting past the nut. If your stack is thicker, step up in length rather than running the nut on partial engagement.
4) Is this Metallics bolt suitable for electrical equipment mounting and strut work?
Metallics catalogs the JG9HC24 under its electrical fastener line, and a 1/2-13 hex cap is a common size for anchoring equipment frames, transformer bases, and heavy strut or trapeze supports. For strut channel specifically, confirm the channel takes a 1/2 inch bolt and use the matching channel nut.
