Metallics JBHC36G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JBHC36G hex bolt take, and will a standard 1/2 inch nut fit it?
It is a 1/2-13 bolt, meaning a 1/2 inch diameter with 13 threads per inch, which is standard UNC coarse thread. Any 1/2-13 coarse hex nut or coarse-threaded insert will thread onto it. Measured shank diameter runs 0.482 to 0.515 in. Threads are made to ASME B18.2.1-1996.
2) Will a 3-1/2 inch long 1/2 inch hex bolt be long enough for my strut and clamp stack-up?
The JBHC36G is 3-1/2 inches of overall length under the head, which covers a strut channel plus a clamp or bracket and still leaves thread for a nut and washer. Add up your actual stack plus about 1/2 inch for nut engagement; if that exceeds 3-1/2 inches you need a longer bolt, and Metallics lists other lengths in the BHC and JBHC series.
3) Do these Metallics hex bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a public project?
No. The JBHC36G is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your job carries a domestic-sourcing clause, these will not satisfy it.
4) What wrench or socket size do I need for these 1/2 inch hex bolts?
The hex head measures 0.725 to 0.750 in. across the flats, so a 3/4 inch wrench or socket is the one to reach for.
5) Is the galvanized finish on the Metallics JBHC36G bolt good enough for damp or outdoor use?
These are steel bolts with a galvanized finish, which is what you want for exterior strut runs, damp mechanical rooms, and unconditioned spaces where plain zinc would start to bloom. For continuously wet or chemically aggressive conditions, stainless is the better call.
6) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBHC36G, and can I buy fewer?
They ship as a jar of 25, and 25 each is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest unit. Metallics does make other sizes and quantities available by request.
7) How much does a jar of 25 of these 1/2-13 x 3-1/2 galvanized hex bolts weigh?
A jar comes in at 7.43 lbs. Worth knowing if you are loading a van with several jars or staging fasteners on a lift.
