Metallics JG9HC4 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and length is the Metallics JG9HC4 hex cap bolt?
The JG9HC4 is a 1/4-20 x 1-1/4 inch hex cap screw. The 1/4-20 means a 1/4 inch diameter with 20 threads per inch, which is the standard coarse (UNC) thread for that diameter, so it mates with any standard 1/4-20 nut or tapped hole. Length is 1-1/4 inches under the head.
2) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JG9HC4?
Each jar holds 25 bolts. Metallics ships this 1/4-20 x 1-1/4 hex cap in a jar pack, which is the handy size for a service van or a shop bin rather than a bulk box.
3) What does Grade 9 mean on a hex cap screw, and is it stronger than Grade 8?
Grade 9 is a higher strength class than SAE Grade 8, so the JG9HC4 is for connections where a Grade 5 or Grade 8 fastener is being pushed to its limit. Higher strength also means less ductility, so the bolt should be torqued to the value the joint design calls for rather than pulled down by feel. For general-purpose bracket and strut work a Grade 5 bolt is usually all that is specified.
4) Do nuts and washers come with the JG9HC4 hex cap bolts?
No. The jar contains the 25 hex cap screws only. Order 1/4-20 hex nuts, and flat or lock washers, separately if the joint needs them. With a Grade 9 bolt, match the nut to the bolt's strength class so the nut is not the weak point.
5) How do I order the right Metallics bolt part number for a 1/4-20 x 1-1/4 Grade 9?
Order Metallics part number JG9HC4. That is the 1/4-20 x 1-1/4 Grade 9 hex cap screw in a 25-piece jar. Other diameters, lengths, and grades carry different Metallics numbers, so quote JG9HC4 when you want this exact combination.
6) What size wrench or socket fits a 1/4-20 hex cap screw?
A 1/4-20 hex cap screw takes a 7/16 inch wrench or socket across the flats, which is the standard head size for that diameter. No driver bit is involved, it is an external hex head.
7) Is the Metallics JG9HC4 bolt fully threaded?
Hex cap screws in short lengths like 1-1/4 inches are typically threaded the full length or very close to it, since the standard partial-thread grip length does not apply until longer sizes. For a joint where an unthreaded shank must sit in the shear plane, specify the grip length you need rather than relying on a 1-1/4 inch cap screw.
