Metallics JBHC65PL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and length are the Metallics JBHC65PL hex bolts?
They are 1/2-13 by 1-3/4 inch hex bolts, so 1/2 inch nominal diameter with 13 threads per inch (UNC coarse) and a 1-3/4 inch shank length under the head. Measured shank diameter runs 0.482 to 0.515 inch, which is the normal tolerance band for a 1/2 inch body. They mate with any standard 1/2-13 nut or tapped 1/2-13 hole.
2) How many bolts come in a jar and can I buy fewer than 50?
The JBHC65PL is packaged as a jar of 50 bolts, and 50 count is the order minimum, so it is sold by the full jar rather than loose by the piece. Metallics does offer other sizes and quantities in this BHC and JBHC bolt line by request.
3) Are these Metallics hex bolts plated or coated for outdoor and damp use?
No. These are plain finish steel, meaning bare uncoated carbon steel with no zinc or galvanized plating. They will rust in wet, exterior, or washdown locations. Keep them to dry indoor work, or step up to a zinc plated or galvanized 1/2-13 hex bolt where moisture is a factor.
4) What wrench or socket size fits these 1/2-13 hex bolts?
The hex head measures 0.725 to 0.750 inch across the flats, which is a 3/4 inch wrench or socket. Standard hex cap screw head, no washer face oversize to work around.
5) Do these bolts meet a dimensional standard so they interchange with other 1/2-13 hex cap screws?
Yes. The threads and head conform to ASME B18.2.1-1996, the standard for inch square and hex bolts and screws. Any nut, washer, or tapped hole built to the same 1/2-13 standard will take them, and they drop in alongside other B18.2.1 hex bolts already on the job.
6) Is this a bolt for electrical work or general construction?
It is a general purpose hex bolt that Metallics catalogs in its electrical supplies line, where 1/2-13 hardware gets used for hanging strut, trapeze supports, transformer and panel mounting, and anchoring to structure. Nothing about the bolt restricts it to electrical work, it is plain steel hex bolt hardware.
7) How much does a jar of 50 of these 1/2-13 bolts weigh for shipping?
The packaged jar weighs 5.85 lbs. The jar itself measures 3.5 inches by 3.5 inches by 5.75 inches, which matters if you are stocking a service van or a shelf bin system.
