Metallics JBHC35G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JBHC35G hex bolt take, and what nut do I need with it?
The JBHC35G is a 1/2-13 hex bolt, meaning a 1/2 inch diameter with 13 threads per inch, which is standard UNC coarse thread. Any 1/2-13 coarse-thread hex nut will run on it. Thread form follows ASME B18.2.1-1996. Measured shank outside diameter runs 0.482 to 0.515 inches.
2) What grade are the Metallics JBHC35G bolts, and is that strong enough for hanging mechanical equipment?
These are Grade 2 steel bolts. Grade 2 is a low to medium carbon unhardened bolt, fine for general electrical, plumbing and HVAC support work like strut, brackets, hangers and enclosure mounting. If your drawing or engineer calls out a Grade 5 or Grade 8 fastener for a structural or high-load connection, Grade 2 does not substitute for it.
3) Do these Metallics galvanized hex bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a public project?
The JBHC35G is flagged compliant for both Buy American and ARRA. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if your specification requires documentation of a single origin country for a given shipment, get that confirmed against the lot you receive.
4) What wrench or socket size fits these 1/2-13 hex bolts?
Head width across the flats measures 0.725 to 0.750 inches, so a 3/4 inch wrench or socket fits. That is the standard across-flats dimension for a 1/2 inch hex bolt.
5) Are galvanized hex bolts like the JBHC35G OK for outdoor or damp locations?
Yes. These are steel bolts with a galvanized finish, which is the usual choice for exterior, wet, and damp locations such as rooftop equipment supports, outdoor strut runs, and unconditioned mechanical spaces. For aggressive chemical or marine exposure, stainless is the better call.
6) How are the JBHC35G bolts packaged and what is the minimum I can buy?
They ship in a jar of 50, and 50 each is the order minimum, so one jar is the smallest buy. The jar is a practical pack for a van or a shop shelf rather than a bulk box. Total weight is 9.92 lbs.
7) What hole size should I drill or punch for a 1/2-13 hex bolt?
Shank diameter on these bolts runs 0.482 to 0.515 inches, so a 9/16 inch hole gives normal clearance and 17/32 gives a close fit. Punched strut and bracket holes at 9/16 will take them without forcing.
