Metallics JG5HTB88 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What thread does the Metallics JG5HTB88 hex tap bolt have, and will it take a standard 1/2-13 nut?
The JG5HTB88 is a 1/2-13 bolt, 13 threads per inch, right-hand thread, cut to ASME B18.2.1-2012. That is standard 1/2 inch UNC coarse thread, so any 1/2-13 nut or tapped 1/2-13 hole will accept it. Shank outside diameter runs 0.4930 to 0.5000 in.
2) Do these bolts meet Buy American and ARRA requirements for a federal job?
Metallics lists the JG5HTB88 as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant. Country of origin is China. If your contract clause is strict domestic-melt-and-manufacture rather than the ARRA/Buy American designation, verify against your spec language before committing the material.
3) Is a hex tap bolt threaded all the way, or does it have an unthreaded shoulder?
A hex tap bolt is threaded full length to the head, unlike a hex cap screw with a grip length. That is what makes the JG5HTB88 useful for bolting into a tapped hole, such as mounting a motor to a machine base, where you want thread engagement right up under the head.
4) What wrench or socket size fits these 1/2-13 Grade 5 hex bolts?
Head width across flats measures 0.736 to 0.750 in., so a 3/4 inch wrench or socket is the size to grab. Across corners the head runs 0.840 to 0.866 in., which matters if you are checking clearance in a tight pocket.
5) Are these zinc plated bolts okay for outdoor or damp locations?
Finish is zinc plating over steel, which handles indoor and protected exterior service. For standing moisture, washdown areas, or coastal exposure, zinc plated carbon steel will eventually rust, and an 18-8 stainless hex tap bolt is the better call there.
6) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JG5HTB88, and is there a minimum order?
These ship 50 count in a jar, and 50 is the order minimum. The packed jar weighs 2,449 g. Metallics covers the G5HTB and JG5HTB series in other sizes and pack quantities by request.
7) Is the JG5HTB88 the same thing as a 1/2-13 hex cap screw?
Not quite. Both have a hex head and 1/2-13 thread, but the tap bolt is fully threaded while a cap screw has an unthreaded grip under the head. Use the tap bolt when you are threading into a tapped hole or need thread right at the head; use a cap screw with a grip when the shank should pass through a clearance hole and bear in shear.
8) What steel are these Grade 5 bolts made from?
Material is steel to AISI 1008 - 1026, heat treated to reach Grade 5 properties. That is a weldable-range carbon steel, but heat treating is what gives the bolt its strength, so welding or torch-cutting a Grade 5 fastener in place will destroy the rating.
