Metallics JBHC64G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JBHC64G hex bolt take, and will a standard 1/2 inch nut thread onto it?
It's a 1/2-13 bolt, meaning 1/2 inch diameter with 13 threads per inch, which is standard UNC coarse thread. Any 1/2-13 UNC nut or tapped hole will take it. The threads are made to ASME B18.2.1-1996, so it interchanges with other coarse-thread 1/2 inch hex bolts.
2) Do these galvanized hex bolts meet Buy American requirements for a public project?
Metallics flags the JBHC64G as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant. Country of origin on record is China, so if your specification demands domestic melt and manufacture rather than ARRA-style compliance, confirm which standard your contract is written to before you submit it.
3) Will the JBHC64G bolt pass through a 1/2 inch hole in strut or an equipment flange?
The shank measures 0.482 to 0.515 inches in outside diameter, so a nominal 1/2 inch drilled hole is too tight at the upper end of that range. Use a 9/16 inch hole, which is the normal clearance hole for a 1/2 inch bolt and matches the hole size already punched in most strut and mounting flanges.
4) Is the JBHC64G hex bolt suitable for outdoor or damp electrical installations?
The bolt is steel with a galvanized finish, which is the usual choice for exterior strut, conduit support and equipment mounting where plain steel would rust. For fully submerged or chemically aggressive work you'd step up to stainless instead.
5) What wrench or socket size fits the Metallics 1/2-13 galvanized hex bolt?
Across the flats the hex head measures 0.725 to 0.750 inches, so a 3/4 inch wrench or socket is the right fit. That's the standard size for a 1/2 inch hex bolt head.
6) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBHC64G, and can I buy fewer than that?
They come packed 50 to a jar, and 50 pieces is the minimum order, so the jar is the smallest quantity sold. The jar pack is what the J prefix in JBHC64G denotes within the BHC and JBHC series. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
7) Does the Metallics JBHC64G hex bolt come with nuts or washers?
No. The jar contains 50 hex bolts only, 1/2-13 by 1-1/4 inch galvanized. Matching 1/2-13 hex nuts and 1/2 inch flat or lock washers, in a galvanized finish to keep the corrosion protection consistent, need to be ordered separately.
8) What does a jar of 50 of these 1/2 inch hex bolts weigh for shipping or carrying up a ladder?
The packed jar weighs 4.85 lbs. Overall jar dimensions are 3.5 x 3.5 x 5.75 inches, so it fits in a tool bag or on a cart without repacking.
