Metallics JBBH41 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Metallics JBBH41 hex bolt actually silicon bronze all the way through, or just bronze plated?
Solid silicon bronze. The JBBH41 is made from silicon bronze to ASTM F468, with a bronze finish, so the corrosion resistance is in the base metal rather than a coating that can be scratched off during install. That is why it gets used for grounding hardware and wet or buried locations where a plated steel bolt would rust out.
2) What nut and tap do I need for a 1/2-13 x 6 silicon bronze hex bolt?
The JBBH41 is 1/2 inch diameter with 13 threads per inch, which is standard UNC coarse thread made to ANSI/ASME B1.1. Any 1/2-13 nut or 1/2-13 tapped hole will take it. For a bronze bolt in a wet or grounding application, pair it with a silicon bronze nut and washer so you are not mixing dissimilar metals at the joint.
3) Can I use these silicon bronze hex bolts on a Buy American or ARRA funded job?
No. The JBBH41 is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with multiple countries of origin on record. On a federally funded project with domestic sourcing requirements, you will need a documented domestic silicon bronze fastener instead. For privately funded commercial, utility, and marine work there is no such restriction.
4) How much material can a 6 inch long 1/2-13 bronze hex bolt clamp through?
Overall length is 6 inches measured from under the head, so plan your stack-up against that minus the nut and washer thickness you intend to use plus a couple of threads of stick-out. It is a long bolt by hex bolt standards, which is why it shows up on timber, pole line, and thick-flange work rather than thin sheet connections.
5) How many bolts come in the Metallics JBBH41 jar?
The JBBH41 ships as a jar of 25 pieces, and 25 each is the order minimum, so you buy it by the jar rather than loose. Jar weight is 9.23 lbs. If you need a different length, diameter, or count in the BBH and JBBH silicon bronze hex bolt series, other sizes and quantities are available by request.
6) Should I use a silicon bronze hex bolt or a galvanized steel one outdoors?
Silicon bronze is the choice where the joint stays wet, is exposed to salt, or is part of an electrical grounding or bonding path, because the corrosion resistance is inherent to the alloy and will not fail at a nicked coating. Hot-dip galvanized steel is the stronger and lower-cost option for structural dry-land work. The JBBH41 is catalogued for electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning work, which is where that trade-off usually lands on the bronze side.
