Metallics JG5HC3D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread and diameter are the Metallics JG5HC3D hex bolts, and will they take a standard 1/4-20 nut?
JG5HC3D is a 1/4-20 hex cap screw: 20 threads per inch on a shank measuring 0.2450 to 0.2500 inch outside diameter, cut to ASME B18.2.1-2012. Any standard 1/4-20 nut or tapped 1/4-20 hole will mate with it.
2) Is a Grade 5 bolt strong enough for mounting a motor to a machine base?
Yes. JG5HC3D is medium carbon steel, heat treated, with 105,000 psi minimum tensile and yield strength and a hardness of Rockwell C19-30. Motor mounting onto machinery is exactly what Metallics lists it for, along with automotive and truck repair work. If your drawing calls out Grade 8, this is not a substitute.
3) Do these bolts qualify for Buy American and ARRA funded jobs?
Yes. The JG5HC3D hex bolts are made in the United States and are flagged both Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant, so they can go on federally funded electrical and construction work with domestic sourcing requirements.
4) What wrench or socket size fits these Metallics Grade 5 hex bolts?
The hex head measures 0.428 to 0.438 inch across the flats, which is a 7/16 inch wrench or socket. Standard for a 1/4-20 hex cap screw, so no odd tooling needed.
5) Are these zinc plated bolts okay for outdoor or damp locations?
The finish is zinc on steel, which handles indoor and protected-exterior service and resists surface rust in normal humidity. For constant wet exposure, salt spray, or coastal work, specify stainless rather than zinc plated carbon steel.
6) How are the Metallics JG5HC3D bolts packaged and what is the minimum order?
They ship in a jar of 100, and 100 count is the order minimum. The jar weighs 1107 g. Metallics notes other sizes and quantities in the G5HC and JG5HC series are available by request if 1-1/2 inch length or jar packaging is not what the job needs.
7) Are these hex cap screws fully threaded, and what grip length do I get?
JG5HC3D is a 1/4-20 by 1-1/2 inch hex cap screw. At that length a 1/4-20 cap screw carries a partial thread with a plain shank under the head, so figure your clamped material thickness against the threaded portion rather than the full 1-1/2 inches. For thin sheet or strut work, a shorter length from the same Metallics G5HC series is the better pick.
8) What steel are Metallics Grade 5 hex bolts made from?
Carbon steel in the AISI 1008 to 1026 range, heat treated to reach Grade 5 properties, then zinc plated. That puts it in the medium carbon, quench and temper class rather than a low grade commercial bolt.
