Metallics JSBH337 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Metallics JSBH337 hex bolt 316 stainless or 18-8?
316 stainless steel. The molybdenum in 316 gives it better corrosion resistance than 18-8 and better strength at elevated temperature, which is why it gets specified for coastal, wash-down, and chemical-exposure work rather than dry interior fastening. Both alloys are austenitic.
2) What thread does the JSBH337 bolt take, and will a standard 1/2 inch nut thread on?
It's a 1/2-13 bolt, 13 threads per inch, which is standard UNC coarse for 1/2 inch. Any 1/2-13 coarse nut or tapped hole will take it. Measured shank outside diameter runs 0.4930 to 0.5000 in.
3) How strong is a 316 stainless hex bolt compared to a plated grade 5?
Published strength on the Metallics 316 stainless hex bolt is 100,000 to 150,000 psi tensile minimum with 65,000 psi minimum yield, and hardness Rockwell B95 to C32. That is below a carbon steel SAE Grade 5 or Grade 8 bolt, so if the joint is strength-governed rather than corrosion-governed, stainless is the wrong trade. Use it where rust resistance is the deciding factor.
4) Do these Metallics hex bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements on a public job?
No. The JSBH337 jar of 1/2-13 stainless hex bolts is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your contract carries a domestic-content clause, this part will not satisfy it.
5) What size wrench or socket fits the head on this 1/2-13 stainless hex bolt?
The hex head measures 0.736 to 0.750 in. across the flats, so a 3/4 inch wrench or socket is the one you want.
6) How many bolts come in a jar, and can I buy fewer than 100?
They ship as a jar of 100, and 100 in the jar unit is the order minimum, so a jar is the smallest buy. Metallics does offer other sizes and quantities in the SBHC and JSBHC hex bolt series by request.
7) Are these stainless hex bolts suitable for electrical and mechanical trade work?
Yes. Metallics lists the SBHC and JSBHC hex bolts for the electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning industries, so they are the general-purpose fastener for hanging strut, mounting enclosures, clamping pipe hangers, and anchoring equipment feet.
