Metallics BHC12612G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What nut and wrench size do I need for the Metallics BHC12612G 1/2-13 hex bolt?
Thread is 1/2-13, so it takes a standard 1/2-13 UNC hex nut. The head measures 0.725 to 0.750 in. across, which is a 3/4 inch wrench or socket.
2) Will a 1/2-13 galvanized hex bolt fit a 1/2 inch drilled hole in strut or steel?
The shank runs 0.482 to 0.515 in. outside diameter, so a true 1/2 inch hole is a tight-to-interference fit. For strut, channel, or steel plate, drill or punch 9/16 inch to get the bolt through cleanly.
3) Is the Metallics BHC12612G hex bolt OK for outdoor or damp electrical work?
It is galvanized steel, which is the usual choice for exterior and damp-location mounting such as outdoor panels, strut racks, and pole or wall standoffs. For submerged, coastal, or chemically aggressive service, stainless is the better call.
4) How many bolts come in a box of Metallics BHC12612G, and can I buy just a few?
They ship as a box of 25 and the order minimum is 25 count, so 25 pieces is the smallest quantity. Other sizes and quantities can be arranged by request.
5) Does this 1/2-13 hex bolt meet a standard dimensional spec for submittals?
Yes. The Metallics BHC series hex bolts are made to ASME B18.2.1-1996, the dimensional standard for square and hex bolts and screws, which is what a spec reviewer or inspector will look for on a submittal.
6) Where is Metallics BHC12612G manufactured?
Country of origin is China. Useful to know up front if your project has sourcing documentation requirements for fasteners.
7) How much does a box of 25 of these 1/2 by 6-1/2 galvanized hex bolts weigh?
A full box runs 9.55 lbs, so a case or two is easy hand-carry up a ladder or onto a lift, and it is worth knowing when you are pulling material for several racks at once.
