Metallics JSBH702 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and pitch is the Metallics JSBH702 hex bolt, and will it take a standard 1/2-20 nut?
The JSBH702 is a 1/2-20 hex bolt, meaning a 1/2 inch nominal diameter at 20 threads per inch, which is the UNF fine thread series. Measured shank diameter runs 0.4930 to 0.5000 inch. Any 1/2-20 fine thread nut or tapped hole mates with it. A 1/2-13 coarse nut will not thread on, so check which pitch your existing hardware uses before you order.
2) Is 18-8 stainless the right choice for outdoor or wet locations, or do I need 316?
The JSBH702 is 18-8 stainless, an austenitic alloy used where general atmospheric corrosion resistance is needed, including chemical and food processing equipment. That covers ordinary outdoor and washdown exposure. Aggressive chemical environments, and coastal or chloride exposure, can call for 316 or another special corrosion resistant material instead.
3) How strong is this stainless hex bolt, and can I use it in a structural connection?
Tensile strength is 100,000 to 150,000 psi minimum with a 65,000 psi minimum yield, and hardness runs Rockwell B95 to C32. That is stainless cap screw territory, appropriate for equipment mounting, strut and general machinery work. It is not a graded structural bolt, so if your drawing calls out an ASTM structural spec, specify a fastener to that spec instead.
4) What wrench or socket size fits the head on this 1/2-20 stainless hex bolt?
Head width across the flats measures 0.736 to 0.750 inch, so a 3/4 inch wrench or socket is the size to bring. Across corners the head runs 0.840 to 0.866 inch, which is what you need to clear if you are driving it inside a recess or a tight channel.
5) How many bolts come in the Metallics JSBH702 jar, and can I buy fewer?
They ship in a jar of 50, and 50 each is the order minimum, so that jar is the smallest quantity. Other sizes and quantities in the SBHC and JSBHC hex bolt line are available by request if 1/2-20 x 2 is not the size you need.
6) Does this Metallics hex bolt qualify for Buy American or ARRA funded work?
Metallics lists the JSBH702 as both Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant. Country of origin is recorded as multiple, so if your contract requires documented origin on each lot, ask for the paperwork tied to the shipment you receive.
7) Do nuts and washers come with these 1/2-20 stainless bolts?
The jar contains hex bolts only, 50 of them. Nuts, flat washers and lock washers are ordered separately. Match them in 18-8 stainless so you do not mix metals in a wet location, and make sure the nuts are 1/2-20 fine thread rather than 1/2-13.
