Metallics JG5HC36 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JG5HC36 hex bolt use, and will a standard 1/2-13 nut fit it?
It's a 1/2-13 bolt, 13 threads per inch, which is standard UNC coarse thread for 1/2 inch. Any standard 1/2-13 coarse nut or tapped 1/2-13 hole will take it. The shank measures 0.4930 to 0.5000 inch outside diameter, and the thread is made to ASME B18.2.1-2012.
2) How strong is a Grade 5 zinc hex bolt like the JG5HC36, and is it strong enough for structural mounting?
Grade 5 medium carbon steel, heat treated, with a minimum tensile strength of 105,000 psi and hardness in the Rockwell C19-30 range. That's fine for equipment and machinery mounting, motor bases, and automotive or truck repair work. It is not a Grade 8 fastener, so for high shock or high preload applications where the spec calls out Grade 8, this is not a substitute.
3) Is the Metallics JG5HC36 Buy American or ARRA compliant for a government or institutional job?
No. The JG5HC36 hex bolt is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, and its country of origin is listed as multiple. If your contract carries a domestic sourcing requirement, this part won't satisfy it.
4) What size wrench or socket do I need for these Grade 5 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 you want. Head type is a plain hex, no washer face flange or recess.
5) Can I use these zinc plated bolts outdoors or in a wet location?
The bolt is steel with a zinc finish, which gives moderate corrosion resistance. That's suitable for general indoor and protected mechanical work. For continuous wet exposure, coastal air, or chemical contact, zinc plated carbon steel is the wrong choice and you should move to a hot dip galvanized or stainless fastener.
6) How many bolts come in a jar of the Metallics JG5HC36?
They ship in a jar of 25 pieces, and 25 each is the order minimum. The jar weighs 2,449 g. Metallics notes other sizes and quantities are available by request.
7) What trades actually use these Grade 5 hex cap screws?
Metallics lists the field application as electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning work. In practice that means mounting motors and equipment to machinery, hanging and bracing mechanical gear, and general machine fastening, plus automotive and truck repair.
8) What steel are Metallics G5HC and JG5HC bolts made from?
Medium carbon steel to AISI 1008 through 1026, heat treated to Grade 5 and zinc plated. The G5HC and JG5HC series is the same bolt; JG5HC is the jar packed version.
