Metallics JBHC35PL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread and size are the Metallics JBHC35PL hex bolts?
They're 1/2-13 hex bolts, 3 inches long. That's a 1/2 inch diameter with 13 threads per inch, which is standard UNC coarse thread, so they take standard 1/2-13 hex nuts and 1/2 inch washers. Measured shank outside diameter runs 0.482 to 0.515 in.
2) Are these bolts plated or bare steel, and can I use them outdoors?
Steel with a plain finish, meaning no zinc or galvanized coating. Keep them to dry interior work such as strut, enclosure, and equipment mounting, or oil/paint them. For exposed exterior or damp locations, specify a zinc-plated or hot-dip galvanized 1/2-13 x 3 hex bolt instead.
3) What size wrench or socket do I need for these 1/2-13 x 3 hex bolts?
Head across-flats measures 0.725 to 0.750 in, so a 3/4 inch wrench or socket fits. Head type is a standard hex, no washer face flange or drive recess.
4) How are the Metallics JBHC35PL bolts packaged, and is there a minimum order?
They ship in a jar of 50 bolts, and 50 count is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest unit you can buy. The packed jar weighs 9.5 lbs.
5) Do these hex bolts meet a dimensional standard I can put on a submittal?
The thread and head dimensions follow ASME B18.2.1-1996, the inch hex bolt and screw standard, so a 3/4 inch wrench and off-the-shelf 1/2-13 nuts will match. Country of origin is China.
6) Is the full 3 inches of a JBHC35PL bolt threaded?
Length is measured as 3 inches under the head, which is how hex bolts are dimensioned. Pair it with the grip you actually need: a 3 inch bolt through two pieces of 1/2 inch strut channel and a bracket leaves plenty of stick-out for a nut and washer. If you need a shorter or longer 1/2-13, other lengths in the BHC and JBHC series are available by request.
7) I need a different diameter or length than 1/2-13 x 3 in the Metallics hex bolt line. What are my options?
The BHC and JBHC hex bolt series covers other diameters, lengths, and pack quantities beyond the 50 count jar of 1/2-13 x 3, available by request. Give the diameter, threads per inch, and length under the head when you ask, since those three settle the part.
