Metallics JBRHC65 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size are the Metallics JBRHC65 brass hex bolts, and what nut do I need?
They run 1/2-13, meaning a 1/2 inch nominal diameter at 13 threads per inch, which is the standard UNC coarse pitch for that diameter. Measured body diameter is 0.4930 to 0.5000 inch. Any 1/2-13 nut or tapped 1/2-13 hole will take them, and brass nuts are the usual match to keep the joint all one metal.
2) Are these bolts solid brass or just brass plated?
Solid brass. The material is listed as brass and the head color as brass, not a plating over steel. That matters for grounding and bonding work and for wet or corrosive locations where you do not want galvanic mismatch against brass lugs, bus, or bronze hardware. If you need the tensile capacity of a structural fastener, brass is not the right choice and a Grade 5 or Grade 8 steel bolt is.
3) What wrench or socket fits the head on the JBRHC65 hex bolt?
The hex head measures 0.736 to 0.750 inch across the width, so a 3/4 inch wrench or socket is the one to grab. Standard six-point 3/4 socket seats cleanly; on brass, use a six-point rather than a twelve-point to avoid rounding the corners.
4) Can I use brass 1/2-13 hex bolts for electrical grounding and bonding connections?
That is the common use for them. Brass is conductive and corrosion resistant, which is why these are catalogued on the electrical side rather than as structural fasteners. They suit bonding to brass or bronze lugs, ground bars, and water pipe clamps where a plated steel bolt would corrode at the joint.
5) Can I get the Metallics JBRHC brass hex bolts in a different length or a larger quantity?
Yes. The JBRHC series runs other diameters, lengths, and pack quantities beyond the 50 count jar, available by request. The JBRHC65 itself is the 1/2-13 x 1-3/4 brass hex bolt.
6) Where are Metallics JBRHC65 brass bolts made?
China is the listed country of origin for the JBRHC65 brass hex bolt. Worth checking against your project requirements if you are buying on a federally funded job with domestic sourcing language.
