Metallics JSBH46 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and length is the Metallics JSBH46 hex bolt?
The JSBH46 is a 1/2-13 hex bolt, 1 inch long. That is a 1/2 inch diameter with 13 threads per inch, which is standard UNC coarse thread, so it mates with standard 1/2-13 nuts and tapped holes. Measured shank outside diameter runs 0.4930 to 0.5000 inch.
2) Will the Metallics JSBH46 bolts hold up outdoors or in a washdown area?
They are 18-8 stainless steel, an austenitic alloy used where general atmospheric corrosion resistance is needed, including chemical and food-processing equipment. For aggressive chemical exposure, 316 stainless or another specialty corrosion-resistant material is the better call.
3) How strong is an 18-8 stainless 1/2-13 bolt compared to a plated steel grade 5?
The JSBH46 lists 100,000 to 150,000 psi minimum tensile and 65,000 psi minimum yield, with hardness Rockwell B95 to C32. That puts it below a SAE Grade 5 steel bolt (120,000 psi tensile, 92,000 psi yield) on yield strength, so if the connection is a high-load structural joint rather than a corrosion-exposed one, a plated alloy steel bolt carries more. Choose the stainless when corrosion resistance drives the decision.
4) Can I use the Metallics JSBH46 on a federally funded job with domestic sourcing requirements?
No. The JSBH46 is not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. For a job with domestic content requirements you need a bolt specifically identified as domestic.
5) What wrench or socket size do I need for these 1/2-13 stainless hex bolts?
The hex head measures 0.736 to 0.750 inch across the flats, so a 3/4 inch wrench or socket is the one to grab.
6) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JSBH46?
Fifty pieces, packed in a jar, and 50 each is the order minimum. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
7) Are nuts and washers included with the Metallics JSBH46 jar?
No. The jar holds 50 of the 1/2-13 x 1 inch stainless hex bolts only. Matching 1/2-13 nuts and 1/2 inch washers have to be ordered separately, and in 18-8 stainless if you want to keep the whole joint from mixing metals.
8) Are these stainless hex bolts suited to electrical and mechanical trade work?
Yes. Metallics lists the JSBH46 for the electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning industries, part of the SBHC and JSBHC hex bolt series. Typical use is strut, hanger, panel and equipment mounting where stainless is wanted for corrosion resistance.
